NATIONAL PARKS OF SENEGAL
Welcome to NATIONAL PARKS WORLDWIDE with
the national parks, nature reserves and other protected areas of all
countries of the world. National parks are the prime locations of wild
and untamed nature; in many countries they are the most exiting places
to visit, if you can find them. This website is your first help for
getting to the national parks of Senegal. In many developing countries, the
protected areas are still difficult to get to. That is the reason why
local travel agencies are often reluctant to take you there, while
others have their own agenda, favoring a lodge in a private reserve with
insignificant forest or nature. And yet, with the proper knowledge,
transportation and gear, visiting national parks is usually relatively
affordable, provided that you don't expect 5 star accommodations.
On this pages you find a list of Senegal's protected areas. Criteria for the selection of National Parks of
Senegal include natural beauty, unique geological features, unusual
ecosystems, and recreational opportunities. Enjoy planning your vacation
in Senegal.
National Parks of Senegal
For their lasting conservation, protected areas
need a lot of visitation, something that is lacking in developing countries. In
order to
promote visitation to national parks,
we created this website. The accuracy of our list varies considerably per
country and is still incomplete for most countries of the world, but we are
continuously working on improving them. As the lack of visitation continues to
be one of the prime drawbacks for their conservation, we decided - after long
hesitation - to organize national parks tours that are guaranteed to take you to
the best national parks of each country, one country at the time. Currently we
offer fantastic National Park tours to
Ecuador
,
Peru,
Ethiopia
and
Uganda.
