Abuko Nature Reserve

About this adventure

A guided walk through Abuko, the oldest protected reserve in The Gambia and one of the densest patches of forest left in the country. The trails are shaded and the birdlife is constant.

Lunch is at Lamin Lodge, out over the mangroves on stilts. **What to bring** - Sturdy shoes - Insect repellent - Binoculars, if you have them - Water
