Mount Atiwiredu is the 3rd tallest and it is located in the Southeastern Ghana along the Akyem-Abuakwa area. The position of Mount Atiwiredu is interesting because it is part of the Atewa Range, which contains Cenozoic Peneplain. It may appear ferocious to some, yet it is the only remaining evidence of the Cenozoic Peneplain's existence.

Mount Atiwiredu has bauxite-rich soil, making it an ideal eco-tourism destination. Thanks to Ghana's Forestry Commission for reserving the forest, which means no farming is permitted in the area. Those who rely on bush meat pose a threat; they go hunting. As a result of the presence of bauxite in the vicinity, miners are attracted to extract it, posing a potential threat to this tall mountain.

The afep pigeon, popular bristlebill, least honeyguide, olive long-tailed-cuckoo, and blue-headed crested flycatcher are among the many magnificent birds that may be seen in this beautiful setting. There are also other butterfly species that are extremely uncommon to discover, such as the Papilio antimachus, which has the world's largest wingspan, and the severely endangered Mylothris atewa.

The fact that the Colobus Vellerosus and the Procolobus Verus are still surviving there is incredible. The two endangered primate species known as Geoffroy's pied colobus and Olive colobus still exist.

All of these ranges require water, and thanks to River Densu for providing it. River Ayensu and River Birim, in addition to the Densu River, are other supplies of water for the diamond mining area. As you can see, it's a place well worth your time.

The peak of Ghana's Kwamisa Mountain is 2,479 feet above sea level. It's close to the Kwamisa Forest Reserve, and Subranum and Ahiruam are only six and eight kilometers distant, respectively. Kwamisa is located 11 kilometers northeast of the Opro River Forests Reserve, 11 kilometers southeast of the Asufu Shelterbelt Forest Reserve West, and 11 kilometers southwest of Beremi and Domiabra.

Ghana is wooded on about 21.2 percent of its land. These woodlands, however, are threatened by periodic droughts brought on by the harmattan winds that blow from January to March. The greatest serious environmental hazard facing these ecosystems, like in other mountainous places around the world, is human expansion. Wild creatures are still threatened by poaching and habitat damage.
