My 2018: A Tour Around my Town-Jos,Nigeria

Jos has a picturesque landscape with bare rocks, artificial hillocks, and deep gorges from years of mining activities giving the town an artistic feel. No matter what time of the year, rustic escapes around Jos welcomes travelers, along with their tents, for nights of cookouts, and campfire songs in some of the country’s most spectacular locales. Turn off your cell phone, take a deep breath of fresh air, and plan an off-season excursion to one of these year-round campgrounds.

The Assop Falls is spread around an area of Guinea Savanna on the slopes and top of a mid-altitude ridge of the Jos Plateau, the campsite is an oasis of greenery with the water at its heart. Shallow, rocky and gently flowing, the Assop Falls occupies interest for hours and, while there is room to pitch along its edges, campers can also cross to more spacious pitches hidden behind tall hedges – best for peace and quiet. When the weather is nice, the waterfall is perfect for a dip or a spot of fishing in the shade of the grove.

The Riyom Rocks it’s impossible to ever get weary of the Riyom Rocks, with its exquisite formation, weathered cliffs, and spectacular views. And right among all this impressive landscaping are grounds perfect for a night under the stars. Located 25 kilometers from Jos along the Jos-Akwanga road it serves as a form of geographical boundary for Plateau State. Unlike Obudu in Cross Rivers State, it is a raw, boulder –strewn, short-grass site, with corners for sheltered pitching. It is pretty low-key for a campsite: just turn up and pitch your tent!

Jos is also unarguably the coldest and highest point in Nigeria, we boast the most favourable weather condition in the country .

Not to forget the smiles and warmth of it's great people that spreads to anyone who visits.
