East Mamprusi Municipal, North East
NewGambaga Escarpment
A 100km sandstone cliff line towering over the plains of Mamprugu, with baboon-lined viewpoints and prehistoric rock art hidden in its gorges.

Remote, culturally rich, and steeped in the traditions of the Mamprusi Kingdom — one of the oldest centralised states in Ghana. The Gambaga Escarpment offers panoramic views across the northern plains, and the Naa Yiri (chief's palace) in Nalerigu preserves centuries of royal Mamprusi heritage. The Nakpanduri Scarp is one of the most dramatic viewpoints in the country, while traditional mud-and-thatch compound architecture dots the landscape, and the warm hospitality of the people makes every visit memorable.
