Max Weber -> Germany -> North Sea -> Sea -> Gulf of Guinea -- Eugene van der Pijll 23:41, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)

shorter: Max Weber#Works -> German language -> Togo -> Gulf of Guinea -- Eugene van der Pijll 23:51, 25 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I found this one by starting from the back: Gulf of Guinea; take an article at random from "what links here", and then again, at Togo: "what links here". And there I saw the link to German language. Eugene van der Pijll 01:00, 26 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Wow that was fast :D I did not think that there was one shorter than 3 middle-links, but there you go. Incidentally, my answer was
Max Weber -> Montesquieu -> Climate -> El Niño -> Gulf of Guinea
