THE ALLURING WATERFALL AT AKUMERSU

There are a lot of tourist attractions in Manya Krobo except that a significant number of them are yet to be developed from their crude state to attract the needed public or national attention and patronage to generate the desired revenue for the development of the Manya Krobo state One such attraction which is fast wasting away in a dense thicket is the Akumersu Fall in the Upper Manya Krobo District. Very few waterfalls in the country, if any, compare to his fall in terms of the height and the spread or width of the water and the sheer volume of water that runs off the steep crag into the valley. Aside from the captivating sight of the water running down the rugged cliff, the way the water naturally stagnates (collects) under the rocky overhang to form a sizeable pool before gliding downstream while caressing the boulders and trees in its tracks leave every visitor in awe. It is nature’s gift to the Manya Krobo state; what is left now is its development and positioning as a recreational destination worthy of investment as well as patronage by both domestic and international tourists.
