Batié is a town and commune in the Hauts Plateaux Division in western Cameroon. It is located at latitude 5.283333 and longitude 10.28333. Batié is known for its association football club Sable FC, the "San San Boys", named after the sand production in this mountainous region. The climate in Batié is very mild. Rainy season typically lasts from March through October. Dry season begins in November and goes into March of the following year.
The closest major city is the provincial capital of the West province, Bafoussam. The village is located on one of the few paved roads (N5) in Cameroon. This two-lane highway connects Bafoussam, to the economic capital of Cameroon, Douala. The N5 cuts across the village and forms two areas of congregation. One is the carrefour and the other is le marché. Le marché is the local market that follows the traditional calendar and occurs every 8 days.
