A hilltop Dutch fort above Elmina with the classic postcard view down onto the castle and the harbour.
The local tip
The light is best late afternoon; the climb is short but steep, so save it for after the castle tour.
Check before leaving
Confirm the site is open, as the gate is sometimes unmanned.
