Bao Bolong Wetland Reserve, established in 1996, is a 296.5-square-kilometer protected area located on the north bank of the River Gambia. It is notable for its diverse ecosystems, including mangrove forests, salt marshes, and savannas. This reserve, recognized as The Gambia's first Ramsar-listed site, serves as a crucial habitat for waterbirds and other wildlife such as the African clawless otter, bushbuck, and West African manatee. The reserve's mangroves, reaching up to 20 meters in height, are among the tallest in the Senegambia region.

Bao Bolong is a tributary of the Gambia River. It offers a lot of opportunities to the inhabitants of the Kaolack region and those of Kaffrine. It promotes fishing, navigation, salt cultivation, reforestation of certain species... Behind the Bao Bolong hides an extremely beautiful landscape

Superb landscape. Very beautiful sunsets to admire. Good places to take a break on the RN4 towards the Gambia and the southern region of Senegal (Casamance).
