As a result of these efforts, the monkey population has increased to about 200 and the forest, with its many species of birds and butterflies, has been preserved. The playful monkeys are wild but often come down very close to visitors when one can offer them Bananas...See kente weaving at the nearby village of Tafi Abuipe, Distance is 14 km by car or 7 km by trail if you walk or rent a bicycle.

2 stops

Wli Waterfalls
Wli Waterfalls (pronounced ‘vlee’), also called Agumatsa Falls, is a popular and dramatic tourist site near the village of Wli not far from the Togo border. Most tourist make the easy walk to the lower falls, which is mostly a flat trail but stunning and beautiful in setting, made even more dramatic by the presence of thousands of fruit bats nesting high up on the nearby cliffs. However, the equally high and much more isolated upper falls is a special treat for those with the stamina for the challenging hike. There are inviting pools at the base of both falls where the hearty can take a chilly dip.....The 1st is the lower falls which is a straightforward 45m walk. The 2nd is a 3-hour hike and you’ll need some stamina for this one and a good pair of hiking footwear. The 3rd is a 5-hour hike definitely not for the faint-hearted...so it up to you to chose the options that suit your capability
