Gambia’s biggest park Kiang West National Park covers 11,000 hectares of vastly diverse and fascinating countryside – mangroves, mud flats, partially closed canopy forests, dry woodland, grasslands and low lying geological formations. The highest point is the escarpment that runs parallel to the Gambia River at 65ft its not bad for a country this flat. The wildlife is phenomenal, with over 300 species of bird alone and mammals that include baboons, warthogs, antelope, colobus monkeys, mongoose, hyena, leopard and bushbuck. Marine life includes crocodiles, manatee and dolphins. The KWNP was developed to accommodate international tourism and has become a favourite with school trips and families vacationing in Gambia.
