Happy Holidays !

In September G@tto will take you for a ride on the Obudu cable car !

If you still haven't noticed... you can see
the making of the Obudu cable car (2005)
in 2 videos - at the blog's bottom.

Walking downhill around the Water Park

The Water Park is downhill, two steps away from the low cable car station.

It wasn't finished yet when I was there in december 2006.

A better wiew - two years later,
from Bob and Lisa's blog

Back to the cable car station to return on the Obudu plateau.

The panoramic road to the Obudu Cattle ranch...

You can reach the Cattle Ranch, at 1600 m. asl, in Obudu's highlands

by cable car or by this 11.25 km steep road from the hill's base.

Since 2005, this road is the site of the annual
Obudu Ranch Intl mountain Race

A midway hairpin bend is called Devil's Elbow...
