Ladies of hive contest #187: Spending time with nature

This summer is looking really hectic and stress filled for me, but if an opportunity arises where I can wriggle some leisure time out, there is a place where I would really love to visit. I've been longing to cross it out from my bucket list because it's been there for too long.

This place is actually one of the most beautiful places in my country, Nigeria. Obudu mountain resort, formerly called Obudu cattle ranch, is my dream summer vacation destination. The mountain resort is located in Obudu plateau, Cross Rivers State, close to the Cameroon border.

It is also a historic place as it has been existing since 1951 and even has a school in the community that has been existing since 1954! I'm sure the community has a wonderful history too. The Obudu mountain resort is full of lush and green mountains and plateaus.

I've done a lot of research about this resort over the years, so I know it has rooms ranging from huts and chalets to the executive rooms and presidential villa. It also has plenty of fun activities like outdoor games, hiking, golfing(I will probably need a golf teacher to accomplish this), eating (very necessary) etc. to keep me happy and preoccupied.

I would also love to take a ride in the cable car. It's something I've never experienced before, but I would definitely love to try it. Another fun activity I would do is to go sightseeing as there are many places there, like the Holy mountain which has the highest point range and people come there to fellowship, pray and communicate with God.

There are also waterfalls for swimming, and there is a nature reserve called Becheeve nature reserve which is a conservation forest filled with plants, animals, and trees as old as time itself. It also has a 60 km canopy walkway. As a student of agriculture, this is undoubtedly a sightseeing spot for me because there is also a nursery for growing trees here.

In general, Obudu mountain resort is a beautiful place for holidays and tourists and the serene environment is what I look forward to. A lot of nature, quiet, good food and breathtaking scenery is what I would love this summer!

Thank you for reading.

I can understand why you would want to go there. When I think of Africa, I generally think of a dry land with sparse vegetation. This sounds like quite the opposite! I hope you get there soon and if you do, please post about it with lots of pictures so we can 'arm chair travel' with you! Take care and have a lovely day!πŸ€—πŸ’œ
