The Mole National Park located at the West Gonja Municipality of the Savannah Region with an estimated area of 4840 km2 is the biggest national park in Ghana. The park is a habitat to many animals including 93 mammalian species, 34 reptile species, and 344 bird species. It is also home to numerous plant species as well. The government made a decision to protect the flora and fauna of the area from extinction in 1958 by reservation of the lands. Not withstanding this decision, the animal and plant species were still susceptible to harm from villagers who were still residing in the park until the landmark decision relocated the inhabitants in 1961. Mole National Park attracts an out-pour of tourists annually and according to Wikipedia, 17,800 tourists visited the area in 2015. Unlike the canopy walkway of the Kakum National Park, tourists at the Mole National Park ride in a jeep with professional rangers. Hope you travel to relief some stress.
