Parc Aventure de Bonoua is a treetop adventure course set in the M'Ploussoue Forest Park near the Don Orione crossroads at the edge of Bonoua, a town in the Comoe District roughly 50km east of Abidjan and typically visited as a day trip from the Ivory Coast's economic capital. The park is built around four courses of increasing height, from 2.5 meters up to 10 meters above the forest floor, connecting obstacles such as rope bridges, suspended logs, and net crossings between platforms fixed to trees, and culminating in an 80-meter zipline. A visit is structured as a half-day activity, allowing time to progress through multiple courses of increasing difficulty. Because the courses are tiered by height and obstacle difficulty, participants can choose a level matched to their comfort and experience: the lowest course offers a genuine treetop adventure experience with minimal height exposure, suitable for first-timers and children accompanied by an adult, while the higher courses at up to 10 meters demand more confidence with heights and harness use. Parc Aventure de Bonoua supplies the harness and helmet on site as part of admission, so visitors need only bring closed-toe shoes; loose clothing that could catch on carabiners or ropes should be avoided. Staff at the park give a safety briefing and demonstrate harness clipping and unclipping procedures before participants start on the course, and continuous safety-line systems are standard on courses of this type in the region, keeping participants attached to an overhead cable throughout each obstacle. As with any outdoor treetop course, conditions are more pleasant and safer underfoot in the November-to-March dry season, when the forest floor and platforms are less slick than during the height of the rainy season from May to July, when heavy downpours are more frequent and courses may pause operation. Pricing is tiered by course difficulty, and current rates should be confirmed directly with the park before the day trip, since the site is roughly an hour's drive from central Abidjan and worth planning ahead for.
