Ikogosi Warm Springs
The Ikogosi Warm Springs is located in Ikogosi, Ekiti State of Yorubaland. It is a confluence of hot and cold springs meeting together at a point – with each maintaining its own thermal properties. Tests reveal that the temperature at the warm spring is about 70 degrees Celsius at the source, and about 37 degrees Celsius at the point where the warm and cold springs merge together.
It is a great tourist attraction situated on over 116 hectares of land in southwestern Yorubaland, with recent renovations made at the warm springs by the Ekiti State government some years ago. The renovations and remodeling were done by former Gov. Kayode Fayemi, and included swimming pools, restaurants, hotels, guest house, a 1,000 capacity amphitheatre, and a conference hall that can seat over 600 people at a time.
