Rosso

Rosso is the main crossing point into Senegal and lives entirely off that one fact, a hot river town where the ferry shuttles back and forth across the Senegal all day and the banks on both sides are lined with people waiting to be processed. It is the busiest land frontier in the whole country and has a reputation among overlanders for touts and fixers that is largely deserved. Behind the town the delta turns green and holds a national park full of wintering birds. A road bridge here has been under construction for years now.
