Ferlo Nord Wildlife Reserve- Travel Tips

What to See, How to Plan & Tours

The Ferlo Nord Wildlife Reserve, established in 1971, spans 6,000 square kilometers in northern Senegal and is classified as an IUCN-protected habitat and species reserve. Characterized by Sahelian savanna, it hosts wildlife such as antelopes, warthogs, and migratory birds, alongside the region’s pastoralist communities. Bordered by Ferlo Sud Wildlife Reserve to the south, it offers a stark, arid landscape shaped by seasonal rainfall and serves as a critical zone for ecological research and conservation.
