Obudu Ranch – 15-25 December 2007


 

To book you call the ranch at 080-536-48209, get the bank details from them and pay at GTB. After payment you call the ranch and give them the number of the payment slip to make a reservation for you. You have to pay at least half of the fee for the number of days you are staying.

 

The water part is wonderful, the 6-hour walk to the water fall is splendid but anyone who can’t walk for long distances shouldn’t try. The Holy mountain is another beautiful place. The Grotto is a natural swimming pool and its nice. The cable car is wonderful, gives you a wonderful view of the ranch.

 

The tree top climbing, monkey face view are also good to see. Its a place anyone in Nigeria has to visit. There is no place like it in Nigeria. The accommodation is fine only that the services are not world standard but better than what you will find in other Nigerian hotels.
