HIKING / BIKING
There are many exceptional hiking trails available in Ghana that show the natural beauty and scenery of our country. Hiking activities can range from very easy (short, little or no elevation change) to strenuous (significant elevation gain, use of hands for balancing).
Some of the easy hikes would be along beaches or through forests. The hike to Wli Falls is exceptionally beautiful forest hike, crossing the feeder streams a number of times.
The next level of difficulty would be hiking among sacred rock formations at Tano Sacred Grove, Tongo or Bongo in the north or to the magnificent views provided at Umbrella Rock or Lookout Rock. Closer to Accra are highlands that include the Atewa plateau and the Kwahu plateau.
Finally, for the adventurous, there is the strenuous hike to the summit of Mt. Afadjato, which at 850 metres is Ghana's highest peak.
There are bike rental locations at a number of locations in Ghana where you can enjoy biking trails in natural scenery. These include trails at Aburi, some areas along the western coast, guided rides around Kokrobite to the monkey forest, and the amazingly smooth riding bamboo bikes at Abompe.
