Mount Adaklu, Ghana
Adaklu Mountain is the tallest free-standing mountain in Ghana. Local tour guides lead travelers on hikes to the pinnacle, which can take anywhere from two to three hours. There is a village halfway to the top that can provide a nice resting place with the best of coconuts, bananas, and hospitality. At the top is a stunning view of three Adaklu villages and the surrounding land. Aside from the hike, there are also various other forms of entertainment including drumming and dance performances, bike tours to nearby villages, the sacred bats of Avanyaviwofe, and numerous other less taxing local tours. Adaklu is also famous for its wild honey, palm wine, and local gin better known as “akpateshi”.
