Very nice place to rest
The canopy walk has been improved
Woow
Wonderful
The beauty of nature
There was no tour guide. The grass has not been catered for. The canopy walk was in bad shape. It is clear that it was initially well planned but no plans for maintenance exist.
Canopy walk is awesome, serene environment, beautiful scene
The Bunsu Aboretum of trees and animals is a collection like none other in the country. There are 3 popular places of collection of trees and animals in Ghana. These are the Anytime Botanical Gardens, the Kakum park and the Legon Botanic gardens. The Bunsu Aboretum the only one with a wide variety of birds. It is the only one in the Eastern region of Ghana.
Recently, they introduced the canopy walk way at the centre. This has gotten a lot of audience visiting the place. In the year 2015, one net broke off and hurt a number of people. This gave bad publicity to the centre. Patronage reduced because of this unfortunate incident which was supposedly a plot by some competitors.
This notwithstanding, 2017 has seen a great deal of patronage and attention. The Bunsu Aboretum is back in business with new charismatic and well informed guides through the garden walk.
Ask of Asare the senior guide, he has deep insight into the history, origin and the usefulness among other things of the plants available at the Aboretum.
Nice place but scary a little
Amazing canopy walk but not enough refreshment areas
The biodiversity of this place is better than Aburi Gardens, I supppose as a result of less human traffic, watch out for the not very good roads if you are approaching from the Koforidua Axis, overall it's worth the visit.
Located at Bunso.
Off the main Accra - Kumasi road some 5minutes drive with no traffic.
It has a mobile pool for kids.
A bouncing castle is also available for patrons.
A horse for a jolly ride.
A canopy walk way.
One can enjoy a hike.
A guest house build by Dr Kwame Nkrumah when Queen Elizabeth was visiting Ghana for the first time.
The guest house is now commercialised and open to the public.
A good weekend get away.
Next year the Arboretum will have a zip line or cable ride which will take patrons from tree to tree and enjoy the natural view.
Seedlings are available for purchase.
The Arboretum is a place to be!
There is a canopy walkway, a dense forest with more than 600 different trees and many other interesting things.
It has botanical garden, nature walk and canopy walkso thrilling
I it is a wonderful thing
Nice, historic and educative place, the Queen of England was kept in this forest during WWII
its a beautiful place to visit. its about an hour's drive from Accra and located on the Accra koforidua road. a great place to visit for people who will not have enough time to visit cape coast or are afraid of heights and the forest or those who want the experience of a canopy walk without having to travel through traffic. a natural forest with a canopy of five roped bridges. a guided walk though the forest to the canopy walk. the forest is not as dense as the cape coast forest and the canopy not as high as the cape coast canopy. takes about an hour to about an hour and half through the forest and canopy. it houses a guesthouse for those people interested in spending a night or two. the place is not as developed as the cape coast canopy site but is more rural like. it is also very close to other tourist attractions like the Boti waterfall, caves and three headed tree and another waterfall in the area. its a round trip of beautiful attractions to visit starting from the canopy to the waterfall through Aburi gardens and back to Accra. tour guides are students from the agricultural college in the area and are very knowledgeable. mine was a guide called Simon who just completed the agricultural college. very knowledgeable guide of plants, uses and toxicology. he said " the land is ours!" which he explained was the motto of the college. he certainly owned the land with his knowledge!
