The site is a slave burial site and it also houses the tombs from the remains of descendants of slaves that were returned from the diaspora. Guests would have the opportunity to get close to their ancestors, as people believe the spirits of many ancestors reside there and can be felt.

Guests would visit one of the largest castles built by the Europeans in 1652 to keep slaves. This was where slaves were kept before being taken to the “new world” through the door of no return. The door of no return is now referred to as the door of return to signify the return of the descendants of slaves from the diaspora. The castle has served various purposes and is currently designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where the history of slavery is kept authentic and told from the African perspective.

The walkway was built by 2 Canadians and 6 Ghanaians in 1994, about 40-50 metres high with a distance of about 350 metres. The walkway gives an aerial view of the forest and guest safety is assured as three of the Ghanaians who helped to build the walkway are still with the park and carry out frequent maintenance. This tour is recommended for those who would want to conquer their fear of heights.
