The River runs through some very remote parts of the Congolese jungle, the only road access to the river is from the village of Liouesso[2]. Thereafter it runs straight to the Likouala. The Lengoue maintains a number of small fishing/ bush camps along it. There is no infrastructure for the entire length of the river, except at Liouesso where it meets the N-2 road.

The only way down river is in a dugout canoe. Trees frequently fall over the river making difficult obstacles.
