Outamba Kilimi National Park – OKNP (3 Days)

Outamba Kilimi National Park, accessible via the unique Kabba Ferry, offers an adventurous journey as visitors are transported across the river along with their vehicles. As Sierra Leone’s inaugural National Park, OKNP is renowned for its hippo population, providing near-guaranteed sightings during dawn and dusk canoe excursions from the main campsite.

Beyond the iconic hippos, OKNP is a vibrant sanctuary teeming with diverse wildlife and natural wonders. Embarking on a canoe trip along the Kabba River unveils the park’s enchanting scenery, where reflections of swinging monkeys and the melodious calls of birds create a magical ambiance. With the option for an extended canoe excursion on the second day, visitors immerse themselves in the rhythmic charm of nature, encountering nine primate species and approximately 150 bird species, including the rare Pallid Harrier migrant, within the lush forest surroundings.
