I am Elizabeth Awotwe. I am 16 years of age and SSS 2 student in Armed Forces Secondary Technical . The school is found in one of the West Africa countries called Ghana. I am from Cape Coast in Central region. This country Ghana has so many natural forest around. Some are found in the village and others are found in the city to attract viewers. One of the most decorated forest is the Kakum National Park, Cape Coast. The name Kakum was derived from a name of a village called Kakum near the park where I come from. This park is the biggest and the most beautiful National park with a walk way and is one of the three’s in Africa. It was established in May 5th 1995. This virgin forest has a natural canopy walk with summer houses. People come from outside Ghana to look at the Canopy walk. It has a very beautiful and most decorated garden, a store with a restaurant . From the restaurant to the forest, you first climb a small hill to theforest. From there, there are two paths ahead of you which direct you to places. The path directing to the right hand side leads to Cape Coast where by the straight path also leads to a bridge. There are small summer houses with four (seats between every bridge. The bridges are seven having different heights . The height start from 40m, followed by 43m continuously, till you reach the last height 73m. When viewers want to walk on these bridges, leaders give black necklaces each and everyone to wear for identification . These bridges are being supported by ropes which is tightened by two big trees.Small woods are also lied in the bridge to walk on. With this the bridges are able to shake while walking on it so they are allowed to walk on it one after the other to prevent any incidence on that. The interesting thing in this forest is that leaders have time to explain to viewers why some animals are not seen in the forest and this is due to the height of the canopy but some animals like monkeys, snakes ,tortoise and the rest can be seen at places near the road side.. This is the end of the brief story on the virgin forest Kakum National Park.
