A Hidden Gem of Nigeria: Obudu Mountain Resort
As I arrived at Obudu Mountain Resort, the elevated location offered a breathtaking view of the surrounding hills and distant mountains. The resort is built on a high plateau with an altitude of about 1600m. The mountain ranges have natural springs and streams, adding additional beauty to the area. The rolling hills and the undulating mountain ranges shaped by centuries of weather held me in awe. I learned that the area was once a ranch until it was converted into a tourist resort. The resort has evolved into a travel destination for visitors who enjoy outdoor activities such as hiking, bird watching, and nature photography. The air was crisp and the cool mountain breeze was refreshing. The landscape was beautiful and pristine, a perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. I discovered that it is a popular destination among local people, yet relatively unknown to international visitors. Those who are willing to make the trip to this hidden gem will be rewarded with an unforgettable travel experience.
