Overnight Camping
A true adventure experience
the adventure cocktail
The two-day overnight camping adventure option offers a cocktail of all the Trident’s adventure activities. We start with the 4km recreational kayaking foray around our Island when you arrive at 3PM on Saturday and, after setting up tents and having dinner on the Island, a riverine night cruise on our party boat draws the curtain on the day. The cruise explores the Akosombo Dam at night and ends with a night view of the iconic Adomi Bridge. Firewood may be available for story-telling before bedtime.
the camping experience
A 2km hike begins at 7AM on Sunday to the Trident Peak. Campers descend the mountain to a boat ride in the Man ‘O War, that takes them to the 100ft Vulcan Rock for the vertigo-inducing Abseil adventure after breakfast, followed by Paintball battles on the Island.
At Camp, you will set up tents and prepare for life in the Ghanaian outdoors. Campers may cook their own meals, learn to live without the home comforts they take for granted and make lasting friendships. There will be campfires for storytelling, painting sessions, a Scrabble contest, and a lot of fun on the Trident. Hammocks will also be available for sleeping under the moon and stars.
