Gambia Bijilo Forest

Bijilo Forest is host to over 130 species of birds such as the Red-necked Falcon, Grey Hornbill,Senegal Coucal and various Bee-eaters There are also 4 primate species, the Patas monkey, Green Vervet monkeys, Red Colobus and the Galago or Bushbaby, that inhabit the park.
Please take notice of the signs asking visitors not to feed the monkeys – as this will interfere with their natural behaviour and reduce their fear of humans, putting them in danger of being harmed or stolen.
Among the flora are lilies, wild orchids, salt-tolerant vines, magnificent silk cotton trees,palms and the odd-looking baobab tree (sometimes called the upside-down tree).


Our members are involved in Gambian restaurants, tours, excursions, eco-tourism, car rentals, and shops within the vibrant Gambia Tourism Industry.
