Bui National Park is a rarely visited national park in western Ghana that is famous for its large hippopotamus population, possibly the densest remaining in West Africa. Thirty years ago it was due to be the site of a hydroelectric dam project that would flood most of the park. Although the lake that would have formed has appeared in maps and atlases ever since, the dam has not yet been built and the area still contains the most pristine riverine forest in the entire Volta system
