WALKING SAFARIS

One of the distinguishing features of Zaina Lodge’s location in Mole National Park is that we are permitted to conduct professionally guided walking safaris and specialized Eco-Learning Safaris on a daily basis.

Guests may either walk from Zaina Lodge or walk in combination with a mobile safari. Guests on a walking safari may be able to approach elephants or other wildlife within an acceptable and safe distance, entirely at the field guides discretion.

Our Field Guides are highly knowledgeable and passionate about their careers and Mole’s flora and fauna. They openly interpret and share what they know about the 350 bird species, 93 mammal species (mostly nocturnal species); 33 reptile species and innumerable plants and invertebrates that make up the Mole National Parks ecosystem.

Zaina is a beautiful, quiet, relaxing place to be based to see incredible wildlife & learn about the flora & fauna.

We had 2 safaris, 3.30pm & 6.30am the next morning. Both very different & with extremely knowledgeable guides. We saw many animals in the afternoon including 2 very large elephants who crossed the track very close to us. Fewer in the morning but still interesting and we saw a completely different habitat. The baboons were great and had babies, we saw many birds & antelope. Staying in a ‘tent’ overlooking 2 waterholes we spent a lot of time sitting on our balcony watching elephants bathing. We saw 13 different ones altogether. The staff are so attentive, nothing is too much trouble, the accommodation is fabulous & the restaurant is beautiful overlooking the bush & the infinity pool.

Our only tiny complaint was lack of choice of menu & we found a large breakfast followed by two 3-course meals each day was too much.

We would very highly recommend Zaina Lodge. It is more expensive by Ghana standards but reasonable by GB prices and very much worth it.
