  The Detour of this leg was a choice between Shake Your Pans or Shake Your Booty. In Shake Your Pans, teams had to use traditional methods to pan for one ounce (28 g) of gold they could trade for their next clue. In Shake Your Booty, teams had to learn a traditional local dance and perform it with Winiama masked dancers for a crowd of locals. Teams only had one attempt, and if three local celebrity judges felt a team lacked creativity or had a bad performance, the team would incur a 10-minute penalty. After successfully performing the dance or waiting out the penalty, teams would receive their next clue.
  In this Roadblock, one team member had to ride a bicycle and deliver a large amount of cumbersome goods, including a small goat, to a specific person stated in their clue at a nearby market to receive their next clue.
  Additional task
  At the start of the leg, teams had to look for the village chief. They had to accept a gift of a chicken, and carry it with them throughout the leg.
  After completing the Detour, teams had to travel by foot to Pelegtanga Market, and search a marked path for a U-Turn stand and their next clue.
