The atmosphere is so serene and calm !!! In the ears of my mind,I can still hear the sound of the flowing streams and of the waterfalls itself, it’s very soothing on the mind and has a calming effect on the nerves. If only you could see the the butterflies I saw flying around so happily and the green scenery, one can’t help but love the place!!! Oh!!! the singing of the birds, that’s a different thing entirely.
Alongside my official duties and travels this past week I decided to have a little fun and that brought me to [Wli Agumatsa Waterfalls](http://Wli Agumatsa Waterfalls Wli-Fodome road Wli-Hohoe road Wli waterfalls street, Wli 020 575 9191 https://maps.app.goo.gl/nPKaJdKcy2K86XX86) . It’s a place worth having on your bucket list if it’s not already on it. If you love nature in it’s raw estate here you are. The greeness of the place is unspeakable and the freshness of the air is out of this world. This place is found in [Hohoe Municipality ](http://Hohoehttps://maps.app.goo.gl/hR8hppQ3ne7PGZYJA)in the west of [Volta Region](http://Volta Region https://maps.app.goo.gl/HW3XsWSq3UD295Ha7) in Ghana. It’s located about 20km from the centre of Hohoe town and about 280km from Accra the capital city where I travelled from. It’s an ancient waterfall that was first discovered in the 1700s by local hunters and was used for ancestral worships until 1800s when it became a tourist attraction.
At **80 meters high,**it’s the highest waterfall in Ghana and the tallest in West Africa. It has the upper pool and the lower pool. Note that I only made it to the lower pool. The upper pool hike is reserved for another day maybe
[The tourist reception office](http://Wli Waterfalls Main Office Center Afegame, wli 024 764 1005 https://maps.app.goo.gl/sYW5eg2AhX2oYPE26) is open 24hrs a day and all week according to the tour guide. We paid a token fee of 15 cedis(less than $5). From the main office it’s 4km pleasure walk to get to the waterfalls. According to the tour guide we crossed 9 streams(local.bridges) before we arrived at the magnificent and cheering view of the waters. It has provision for camping and hiking but I didn’t explore those,seeing I was just there for the day. I’ll plan to get another visit DV seeing I love the place.
I was not too happy leaving this place because I love nature. Oh yes and before I forget, the water was so cool !!!
One last thing about this place is the quietness. @HiroyukiTakisawa please can I send in a second contribution to the #monthlytopic of October 2020. This place definitely qualifies for it. Please feel free to accept it and use it in anyway. Thanks.
Wow, what a really interesting place. I am also a nature lover like you. Last week, I invited 25 Local Guides to explore waterfalls in Indonesia. And it must be a very memorable experience. Thank you for sharing the story
This place is truly amazing and natural. Organize a physical meetup here, like picnics, board games meetup, Hiking etc. I will love to stay on this place for so long over the shade tree.
Did you have a soak?. The water is so clean. Thank you for sharing this amazing place with beautiful pictures with us here on connect.
Please don’t mind me. Perhaps you should try a trip to the place and a trail will convince you. Thanks for your nice remarks and for lookin up the post.
Yes I did have a soak thanks . It will be a great place for a geohike or walk or meetup but for now,stay safe. We’ll see what the future holds. Thanks for the suggestions.
You are welcome @HiroyukiTakisawa . I tagged you on the first Quiet place I wrote but maybe you missed it. Am glad you like this one. We appreciate your effort to the organize this monthlytopic.
Thanks for giving a good comment. Yes it’s a remarkable experience. Plan to explore more waterfalls and natural places like that. I saw your post on the waterfall in Indonesia. Sure you all enjoyed it.
@SholaIB wow!!! Just wow!!! Shola I am a lover of nature and I feel like teleporting to the Wli waterfalls already . This place looks so serene and beautiful, a kind of place one can chill in for a while to draw inspirations from nature . Oh my world!!! I should put this on my bucket list seeing as I plan to visit Ghana in no distant time … I would definitely try the coffee (I like coffee too ) and I have been wanting to try cocoa seeing that it has so much health benefits. Wow!!! I can’t get over this beautiful view, thank you Shola for sharing this .
That was a blast of a comment and reply to my post,thank you. Yes I had the same sentiment as you have now. After the 45-60mins walk and we arrived there I was just like.**…**WOW
