The nature reserve Bandia is located about 65 km south of the capital Dakar at Mbour in the North Senegal. The visit of the park is worthwhile for every nature lover. Covering an area of approximately 3500 hectares, it is possible to meet the large mammals of Africa here. The Bandia Nature Reserve was established in 1997 and you can get to know the original fauna of Senegal. In addition to giraffes, gazelles, wild boars, buffalos and crocodiles, rhinos and many species of birds such as the ostrich can be admired. The best time to visit the Bandia Nature Reserve is early in the morning, because at that time temperatures are still bearable and many of the animals are still active. Later in the day, most animals look for shady hiding places. Since this reserve is recommended for a full day safari trip, you should have enough drinking water because of the heat and think of a protective headgear. Sturdy footwear is recommended for the walk.
