    Opportunity for interesting guided walks. However entrance is at the visitor center here: (6.7399280, -1.7073750). Take the dirt road from the main junction in Owabi in direction to the lake. The road goes to the dam, visitor center is on half way.

    Serene environment with a lot of trees. The facilities are old, it needs a facelift. There are a few animals too. Tourism experience is okay, not excellent though.
