Bafing National Park, National park and Tentative World Heritage Site in southern Mali.

The park spans 5,000 square kilometers across woodland landscapes and serves as a critical habitat for numerous bird species including violet turacos and fox kestrels.

Established on July 1, 2000, Bafing National Park stands as a component of the Bafing Biosphere alongside Korofin and Wongo National Parks in Mali.

Local communities participate in park management by applying traditional ecological knowledge to support conservation efforts and sustainable resource practices within the protected area.

Visitors can explore the park through guided tours, focusing on birdwatching activities and observing the diverse wildlife populations in their natural environment.

The national park contains the only protected area for chimpanzees within the Manding Plateau region, with populations ranging from 1,500 to 2,000 individuals.
