Achimota Forest Reserve

Achimota, Accra · Greater Accra

A rare pocket of green in central Accra, with tall trees, walking paths and a protected forest canopy.

The local tip

Go in a group and keep to the main paths; parts of the reserve are used for other purposes and signage is poor.

Check current public access rules, which have been debated and can change.
