Mole National Park is the largest, oldest and most developed park. Mole began in 1957 as a game reserve. It covers an estimated 4840km2 in Northern Ghana and is home to serveral species of mammals, birds, and 734 species of flowering plants. The park is on the tentatve list of Unesco world heritage since 2000.
Mole National Park protects an area of savannah and forest in northern Ghana. It’s home to elephants, leopards and rare birds such as the white-backed vulture. In the western part of the park, the Konkori Escarpment has panoramic views and overlooks waterholes where animals drink. There are waterfalls along the Kparia and Polzen rivers. To the south, Larabanga village has a centuries-old, Sudanese-style mosque.
