Don i tison (from Bafia: Town-hill) is the southernmost peak of a mountainous ridge west of the Cameroonian city of Bafia. The nearest populated place is Gouife.
In the figurative sense Don i Tison means populated peak. This comes probably from the fact that a German military base was located here from March 1911 to September 1912 during the Bafia campaign against surrounded populations.[1] Some ruins from this period still remain. Most spectacular is a surrounding wall made from roughly-cut stone.
From November 6, 1914, to December 15, 1914, German ethnologist Günther Tessmann used the place as a base camp during his expedition to the Bafia people.[2]
The ascent of the mountain is a part of the biannual Mbam'Art festival.[3]
