Kwa Falls is one of the most popular waterfalls in Nigeria and the most visited in Cross River State. The Kwa Falls is located in Anegeje village in Akamkpa LGA of Cross River State and an extension of the Kwa River. Its sparkling waters cascade down basement rocks situated at the Oban side of the Cross River National Park. There are 234 steps made to the Kwa Falls, and the waterfall flows into a canopy of the tropical rainforest and mangrove forest that is rich in Mahogany, Ebony, and Spruce trees in a fascinating landscape.
The Great Kwa River flows through Cross River State, Nigeria, draining the east side of the city of Calabar. The river ecology is under threat from human activity.
