Our class was able to visit Kakum National Park. The rainforest is less than an hour from Cape Coast. The Kakum protects more than 40 large mammal species and the flora found there is incredibly expansive. We participated in the main tourist attraction, the canopy walk. The walk was constructed in 1995 and is one of three canopy walks of its kind in the world. The other two being in China and South America. It consists of a 350 meter-long wood and rope walkway that connects seven trees. It is not for those who are fearful of heights!
