 The
Kachikally Nature Trail is a tropical forest deep in the heart of urban
Bakau, The Gambia. The sacred pool and the museum are enclosed within 6
acres of local tropical forest which has remained relatively untouched
for over 400 years. The foot paths that meander through the forest are
the only part of the soil that is visible.
Dozens of
plants and animal species can be found in the unspoilt nature spot,
most of them are unique to the forest and cannot be found in any other
area of The Gambia.
There are palm trees, figs, baobabs, climbing plants, shrubs,
indigenous flowering plants and so on. There are also reptiles like the
Monitor Lizard, Agama and various snake species. |
