About Western North & Bia
The Western North Region was created in 2019 and is one of the greenest parts of Ghana, with cocoa farms and large areas of forest. Bia National Park, near the border with Côte d'Ivoire, is part of a UNESCO biosphere reserve and shelters forest elephants, chimpanzees and the rare bongo antelope.
Sefwi Wiawso, the regional capital, is the base for exploring the area and Sefwi culture.
