This huge park, located in an area of savanna and forest, is the country's finest nature reserve. The Comoe River flows through the park, which is open from December until the beginning of June.
The park contains lions, hippos, elephants, buffalo, monkeys, many kinds of antelope and more than 400 species of birds. Although the animals are not as abundant as in the parks in eastern and southern Africa, a visit to Comoe is still worthwhile, and it fits in well with travel to other attractions in the north of the country. A four-wheel-drive vehicle is almost a must—the region is not well served by public transportation.
