Interesting! Only two suspended lakes in the world, one in Nigeria in Oyo State . In which country is the other one and what’s the name of that lake please? |

The lake drawing someone to the very bottom when it's full might just be a myth have the locals seen anything like that before? |

tuzle: Naso I ask myself when I went there. I wanted to put my leg, it was a lady that drew me back. Funny stories behind many tourist centres in Nigeria, those people just cook up mouth to mouth stories and feed every generation that comes there. Na ife own shock me pass, many stories that choke. |

masseratti:I'm not sure there's only two of that in the world. A lot of this kind are all around especially in those Scandinavian countries. Sweden, Norway, Iceland, etc. |

Vote of Thanks. I want to say a big thank you to the OP for giving us this wonderful privilege to travel without moving an inch under this heat. Thanks again for the photographer, you've got eyes for nice and interesting angle, my prayer for you is may keep going higher. Now more importantly to all the rationale humans here who don't believe in legends or superstition, I wish you all the best and finally to those who will get angry at this horrible comment, it's my utmost desire that God will give you sense to do the needful next time. Gentlemen, shall we... |

One beautiful thing about this tourist site is that it is rare. There are only two suspended lakes in the whole world. And one is in our dear country, Nigeria. So sweet!!! |

That tarred but bushy and unmarked road to the lake put me off from watching the video complete. Nigeria politicians go abroad on tourism, see how roads to tourists sites are maintained and marked, they return to Nigeria and build half by half roads |

egorov: That claim cannot be true. Crater lake in Oregon,US is a very big lake at the very top/mouth of an Old volcanic mountain. And there are many lakes all over the world that accumulated in craters of expired volcanos. Based on your explanation, they are all suspended lakes. |

I think the claim about the Iyake lake is only to reinforce the legend around it. Its totally false. 1 Like |
