We were spoiled! We loved the comfort and privacy. The sliding glassdoors made the best “TV screen” to watch a beautiful world morning and evening! We were grateful for a wide variety of tasty dishes! There was plenty to satisfy my husband’s conservative tastes and my more adventurous palette! Everyone here was friendly, kind and extra willing to help. Such a gracious staff! Our tour guides were extremely knowledgeable about wildlife and birds. Their sharp eyes and willingness to stop and show us the variety of animals was amazing!

The room was amazing. We loved everything about it. Especially the view. There was delicious and plenty of food and lots of choices. I think I gained a few pounds. All of the staff are obviously well trained to look after our every need and so friendly. We loved the 2 safaris we did and the walk to the water hole. Our guide was amazing to spot beautiful birds.

The room was a cool oasis amidst nature, with a beautiful view and a comfy bed. The food was delicious! We recommend the guinea fowl – a delicious local treat! The service was impeccable. Everyone knew our names, left us to enjoy the resort but also were there to meet our every need. The chef even took our order before every meal. The activities were fantastic. The guides were knowledgeable, found every animal we wanted to see and they personally knew some of the elephants and their individual histories!

Wow, Zaina Lodge at Mole National Park is truly amazing. Beautiful scenery, excellent safari. Learned a lot about all the animals in the park. Excellent breakfast and 3-course meal and a good view of the park from the restaurant. Well done.

OUR LOCATION

Mole National Park was the first wildlife reserve established in the country dating to the 1950s and today covers 4,577 square kilometres of pristine Guinea Savanna woodland of northern Ghana. 

The dominant vegetation is open savanna woodland with grasses that can reach 3 m during the rainy season. Open areas of short grassland, known as bovals, are found in locations with shallow soils and iron pans. Narrow bands of riverine forest grow along most of the streams.

The large mammals most commonly seen in the park include elephant, kob, waterbuck, bushbuck, warthog, hartebeest, roan antelope, buffalo, various duiker, oribi, baboon, patas monkey and green (vervet) monkey. There are now approximately 600-800 elephants in the park, up substantially from the numbers present in the 1970s.

It is also an international destination for avid birdwatchers with numerous endemic species. There are at least 344 bird species that can be seen, some of which are spectacular to see, like the carmine bee-eater and saddle-billed stork, among others.
