Accra: Wli falls & Mona Monkey Sanctuary

Wli Waterfalls
Wli Waterfalls, also known as Agumatsa Falls, is the highest waterfall in Ghana and one of the most popular natural attractions in the country. Located near the village of Wli in the Volta Region, the falls cascade over a series of rock cliffs surrounded by lush greenery. There are two main levels to the waterfall: the lower falls, accessible through a short hike, and the upper falls, which require a more challenging trek. The area is home to diverse flora and fauna, including hundreds of fruit bats that can often be seen around the falls.

Tafi Atome Monkey Sanctuary
Tafi Atome Monkey Sanctuary, also located in the Volta Region, is a community-based wildlife conservation area that protects a large population of Mona and Patas monkeys. The sanctuary was established to promote ecotourism while preserving the monkeys' natural habitat, as the local community considers the monkeys sacred. Visitors can enjoy guided tours, learn about the sanctuary’s history and conservation efforts, and interact with the monkeys, who are known for their playful behaviour and are often receptive to being fed by visitors.
