Hann Forest and Zoological Park

Hann Park combines woodland, environmental education and a zoo. Take a slower-paced break in Dakar by walking along permitted paths, observing vegetation and exploring areas open to visitors. For a family outing, ask at reception which sections are accessible and whether educational activities or guided visits are available that day. Species on display and access to enclosures can change.

Things to see and do

  • Walk along the forest park’s open paths
  • Explore the environmental education centre when its programme allows
  • Observe animals from a distance in accessible areas
  • Allow breaks and adapt the walk for children

Good to know

Bring water, a hat and comfortable shoes. Do not feed animals or cross barriers. Confirm opening times, admission fees and accessible areas at reception.
