Greet » Liati Wote

As you enter the community of Liati Wote, your view is dominated by the mass of Mt. Afadja, Ghana’s highest free-standing mountain at 885 meters. It offers sweeping views all the way to Togo and Lake Volta. Liati Wote also features the beautiful Tagbo Falls, reached by a lovely hike that showcases abundant butterflies – over 300 species recorded.

When To Visit

Water flow from the falls is reduced in the dry season, but it is beautiful year-round. The falls hike is mostly shaded. Butterflies are most abundant during the dry season (October-March). Mt. Afadja has little shade so it is best hiked in the early morning or late afternoon.
