Klouto is the mountain just past Kpalime and is renowned for its butterfly walks.  These can be organized easily once you get up there, although if you're short on time it may be worthwhile ringing in advance.  There are guides available who speak both french and english.  The walk takes you up to the peak of the mountain so it is taxing but not too difficult.

Getting there:
Klouto is just past Kpalime.  The easiest way to get there is to take a taxi-moto from Kpalime (you can get a local bus to Kpalime from Lome, Kara and probably any other number of major villages in Togo)

Klouto is the mountain just past Kpalime and it is stunningly beautiful.  The drive up can be a little hair-raising, especially if it's raining, but the views are amazing.  Klouto is best known for the myriads of butterflies in the surrounding bush and once you're there it is easy to organize a guided walk to go and see them.  The walk will normally take you up through some of the remote villages, past coffee and cocoa plants and ends up at a waterfall, which, while nice and cool after the walk, isn't all that spectacular.  Personally I think there are better waterfalls around but the walk was pleasant and the butterflies were amazing.  One thing to consider though is that a lot of the tour guides also have butterfly collections so if you don't want to see your wonderful butterflies being hunted down by a large (and often lethal) net, I would ask the guide to leave it at home.
