From airport to location
Parc National du Banco, located near Abidjan, is a 30 square kilometer national park offering a glimpse into primary forest with diverse flora and fauna. The park features walking trails, including routes to admire the impressive stands of hardwood trees. Accessibility can be limited depending on the trails and time of year, with some paths becoming muddy during the rainy season. While solo visits are possible, hiring a guide is recommended to enhance the experience and learn about the park's ecology. Guided tours are usually inexpensive. Expect to spend around 2-4 hours exploring the park. The rainy season (May-October) may present challenges for accessibility and wildlife viewing, with the dry season being more favorable.
