The Cape Coast Castle is one of the most historic places to visit in Ghana or even Africa. Learnt a lot about the trans-Atlantic slave trade from this visit. It was quite an emotional experience for me. Although I forgot to take a picture, the view of the Atlantic ocean from this site is absolutely fantastic. Anyone who visits Ghana, must definitely visit this city and its castles and forts. #ghana #triplocal #historicalplace #travelinspiration

Ghanaian Gem 💎🇬🇭 | Kakum National Park 😍

Ghana may be a small country in Africa, but its nature is undeniably beautiful! The Kakum national park is only just 2-3 hours away from the capital city of Accra and the views are amazing! You can enjoy a variety of activities, ranging from hiking to animal viewing, from canopy walk to stargazing at night! The national park is best visited in the morning, with the mist around you! It gives you a mysterious vibe while you are situated in the middle of a rainforest! Make sure you get up early and visit the national park if you happen to be in Ghana or Accra! #ghana

I enjoyed going to this park. The hike to the canopy walk is about 5-10 minutes but it’s beautiful and surrounded by greenery. The canopy walk was a bit scary at first but you get used to it after a while. You can decide to go through all 7 bridges or 3. I suggest you do all 7 to get your money’s worth. You can also decide to spend the night at this park. Accommodation is pretty affordable and it has a couple of restaurants, craft stores and a picnic area. #ghana #capecoast #accra #kakum #kakumpark

Beautiful Kukum National Park

Getting There - 175 km from Accra, Ghana. The drive is about 3 hours and 40 minutes. The ride has beautiful views but the roads have potholes so you need to be careful. Attractions - The main attraction at this national park is the 350m long Canopy walkway. You have the option to take a shorter canopy if you can’t handle the 350meters on the wobbly canopy. The cost for foreigners is 100 Cedis and 35 cedis for Ghanaian locals. You can also go bird watching or just hike the trails. Hotels - There are tree houses you can stay in at Kukum National Forrest for about 200 cedis a night. This is a great way to explore the forest at night, when more animals are active and there’s a higher chance of you seeing the wildlife. Food & Restaurants - There’s a restaurant at the main entrance of the park that offers affordable local and foreign food. Shopping - There are shops at the entrance that sell souvenirs #canopywalk #hikingtrails #ghana #naturalwonders #summervacation #2023TravelWish #MyTripVlog #tripblazers

🇬🇭 Cape Coast Beach Day with City View❤️

#beachaholic Yes, you are right! Ghana is full of amazing beaches and they are all amazing! When you visit Ghana, it is best you visit Cape Coast as a day trip from Accra the capital city! Cape Coast has a variety of activities to do. There is a beach to chill on but what’s more is that you can get the beach views from the top of Cape Coast Castle! On the castle, you have both the bustling city view and the beach view with a rugged coastline. The beach is quite popular. After chilling on the beach, make sure you visit Elmina Castle. It is a good place to learn about the dark history of Transatlantic slave trade and to listen to their stories. There is a lot of history around the area and provides good opportunities for souvenir shoppings and beach or ocean photography!
