Sapo National Park, which lies in Sinoe County, was established in 1983 and is home to leopards, forest elephants, pygmy hippos and chimpanzees. At some 700 square miles, it is one of the largest blocks of protected forests in the sub-region.

The park is an international focal point in Liberia. in 2002, seven (7) new plants which are not found elsewhere in the world were discovered in Liberia and scientists are now conducting several laboratory tests to establish their values. The Sapo National Park is the only pride of Liberia’s tourist attraction and a well functional area in this post war-torn country.
