Ghana · SLAVE ROUTE HERITAGE SITES
The route ran inland to the coast: the markets of the north, the river at Assin Manso where captives were washed before sale, and the forts at Cape Coast and Elmina where they were held. Following it in that order, rather than arriving at a castle cold, is what most guides recommend. The itineraries below cover it in one long day, in two, or across a longer journey.
