Getting There

If you are driving from Amedzofe, start by heading out of the town center towards the main road. Follow the signs directing you to the Afadjato Mountain area. The roads are generally well-marked, but be cautious of potholes and pedestrians. Drive approximately 15 minutes (about 10 km) until you reach the base of Mount Afadja.

Public Transportation
To reach Mount Afadja via public transport, start at the main bus station in Amedzofe. Look for shared taxis or 'trotros' (minibuses) that are heading towards Afadjato. Confirm with the driver that they are going to the Mount Afadja area. The fare is typically around 2-5 GHS. The ride takes about 20-30 minutes. Once you arrive at the base, you will need to pay a small entrance fee (around 5 GHS) to access the hiking trails.
