A monkey, plenty of trees, walkways, skyways..... and more trees.... thank goodness I didn't waste my time. The long queue of cars during the yuletide was tempting to think something was actually going on there.... well except if you are.... a primate.

The beach is made of just sand, trees and a huge expanse of water. Why do you think people still go there?

happney65:
I can see one ass for there..Hope una fucckk for there sha?

have some decency

buiquiey:
FTC
Nice trip you got there with your friends, I could see it was all fun...

Yes

Berankis:
I admire your adventurous spirit! But for my side, the hussle for food no go let me remember say conservation centers they exist.

brotherly you funny sha .

But eez not like an everyday sturvs. and I need the trip the most. I dey serve for Lagos, somewhere around isolo. I still work on the island and do a remote job. It's a crazy marathon for me and body need small adventure to help the mind. We no go kill ourselves to pursue wetin we no go dey around to enjoy. But we go eventually make am sir

davidodiba:
Good and cool but some spots look creepy...especially that warning against snakes and crocs....yoook

lol different strokes for different folks. The only animals we encountered were just monkeys, exotic birds and that's it. we didnt have time to see the tortoise, crocs and the rest. and they're not scattered everywhere for your safety

meobizy:
Wow.
OP really enjoyed himself.
See as write up full everywhere.
I’m happy for you and surprised that Nigerians are slowly but surely embracing hiking as a hobby.
My sedentary friends’ bodies have changed drastically for the better ever since they started the activity.
I hope more Nigerians take it up.
One staying for long in their comfort zone without exploring is the worst disservice they can do their bodies and minds.

thank you so much

shobroy10:
U try sotey u occupied the whole page
Just tell us u went on a date

lmao I can bet you a million bucks you dunno amongst the three of us who the OP is.

Satan66:
My igbos brothers are too fine and brave
But why carry an afonja woman
She should be in the forest with those monkeys.

we're all Ibos and sorry I dont speak tribalism

mBillz:
Why not setup a blog and share these experiences there?

I need help with that. I don't know jack about blogging. I have loads of content

buharisbae:
Amazing! I can't wait to go for my sky diving trip next month

uuzba:

Divay22:
I wonder when I'll have time in this my life to do something like this.
God help me.. Thanks OP for sharing with us.

See me and that canopy walk issa no no

thank you

BandAid:
This is an expose. And what really awed me the most was your sense of description and depth in narrating events. I have been to LCC. Although I was somewhat underwhelmed by the sights and sounds, nonetheless, it was a good visit.

We all should sometimes take a break from the ordinary activities of life and do some recreations. Doing so is not only educating and refreshing, it is also healthy!
OP, once again, a big well done to you.

thanks so much

ericmor:


Wanted to go but now change my mind bcs of that. I so much hate snake en. I’m d opposit of the guy you people call seun

Hehehe....
You mean Lala in the Snake Shadow....that guy loves snakes

baratech:
Did you see snakes and crocodiles in the swamp?

we no go that side

moreover the swamp is dried up and they've been placed in a more conducive environment. I'm speaking for the crocs tho

justscorchone:
Are you serious,this bastards charged me 4K per person when I carried one control there last year,that shit shook me and left me broke the rest of the date

lmao sorry

one4GOD:
mostly pictures of yourselves than anything about the conservative. Nothing much though, been there, but was thinking I would see any much improvement from the last time I visited which is over 3years now.

I havent been there before now so I cant tell about the difference if there's been improvement or not. Sadly we didnt take much pictures of the park with posing in them. Well, I have a few if you're interested.

All these campus hoes

come up with something stronger next time, you sound pained

creamylicious:
Hey, I fear all kinds of animals. Edakun how can I enjoy this sort of adventure without shouting?

lmao you can go to other parks where the animals are sheltered. I'm working with several resorts to visit and review their projects. I'll mention you in some when we're ready

SmooshCHN:
I did see snakes when I was there. Didn't see any Crocs but I'd believe there would be some there. The canopy walk is the highlight of the place all for just 2k

Nonye6194, great job man. LCC is worth every penny and I think they could use some more marketing or advert. People need to know of places like these. If you don't mind, I could join you guys on your next your or something.

Oh
She looks so much like an afonja
Maybe from her mother or father side

Acidosis:


especially to those with typical village and farm experience. You can't grow up in the village around the middle belt for example and be awed by the LCC experience.

If we have serious Governors in this country, IGR would be increasing yearly in geometric proportions. Taraba's Chappal Waddi mountain (highest point in Nigeria) should be hosting at least 500,000 new visitors yearly (from the south south region and other parts of the country) who due to their geography, have never seen nor climb a mountain. Maintain this trend for a year or two and get a local airport, create more jobs and improve your economy.

To other willing private investors, you can't go wrong with tourism. The attractions already are there. Just invest, maintain and spread the message.

I totally agree with you. we have so much untapped resources but unwilling to explore them. right from the east, west north and down to the south, we have natural attractive sites that can generate good revenue for the state. Only one state governor (Donald Duke) had shown reasonable initiative to promoting the state through tourism and till date, cross river remains amongst the top destination points in West Africa. But as he left, his successors havent shown much interest like he did and the parks, resorts and the rest are experiencing a decline in service. We will get it right slowly, with the right persons in the office

lesson44:
All I mostly see here in these pictures is you and your girlfriend. Where are the Animals and other natural things they are conservating?

lol the animals we saw, I posted them sir. And y'all need to change from the mindset that a girl and guy cant be good friends (I didnt say bestie o) without messing around or dating. we aren't

mamotalk:
Your plus:
You create time to enjoy youself
You gush over your cute babe
You try to tell us that you are law-abiding
You have been to Calabar before
You respect the Lagos traffic

Your Sin:
You fail to kill big snake to donate to the nairalanders.

My Take:
I salute your descriptive prowess

that's not my babe, walahi

and I didnt even pose with the babe in any of the pictures I posted. i did that intentionally cause I know nairalanders

lmao we no dey play with traffic sir.

we are talking about preserving the snakes and you want us to kill one for the team

p.s I have a snake thread lalasticlala has refused to push to fp. here's the link

The place is bush Na!? Conserved bush.
They should clear the bush and build house before you will be happy?
This Nigeria people sef. After you will go to bar beach and complain that the place is flooded.

Insecurity should be tackled first to the barest minimum then tourism will be a boom..becos the middle belt and the north have so many interesting site to behold.I missed the days of Nigeria before Boko Haram and fulani headsmen wahala
