The Gambaga Escarpment measures more than 60 kilometers wide. It got its name from the town of Gambaga which used to be the capital of an ancient kingdom of Mamprusi. The site has not been marked yet as a tourist attraction site. It however presents a very beautiful and captivating view from afar. The Gambaga escarpment can be located on the main Tamale-Bolgatanga road in the Northern regions of Ghana. This escarpment can be explored following a circular road route from Walewale via Gambaga and Nalerigu to Nakpanduri at the eastern edge of the escarpment, then returning to Bolga via Bawku and Zebilla.
