Ghana wildlife safari

Ghana is an ideal destination for a wildlife safari holiday. With 16 national parks, resource reserves and protected areas, it offers vast and varied habitats from wetland lagoons and saltpans along the Gold Coast, to tropical Guinea rainforest in southern Ghana. More centrally you will find broad leaved woodland and as you venture northwards, the Sahelian Savannah plains.

The national parks in Ghana are home to a dazzling array of wildlife:  Forest and Savannah elephants, hippopotami , lions, leopards, hyenas, chimpanzees, baboons, 7 species of monkey, 3 species of crocodile, buffalo, various antelopes, and much more. Mole National Park alone has over 93 mammal species!

So, whether you are jungle trekking through the unspoilt Ankasa protected area in search of chimpanzees, viewing hippos and monkeys from a dug out canoe on a river safari whilst riding the Black Volta river, or camping in Mole National Park whilst listening to the roar of lions or a herd of elephants passing, you are guaranteed to take away with you memories that will stay with you forever. Idyllic settings, coupled with the colourful and warm hospitality of the varied ethnic groups living in and around the national parks, provide every reason you need to take an excursion into one of the finest wildlife zones in Africa.
