Tourists can admire nature while canoeing on the river Niger. They can even practise fishing as the local fishermen are very open and friendly. Tourists can also take a tour of the GunGun village, sightsee, and appreciate the local Hausa/Nupe traditions.
Jebba Hydroelectric Power Station
The Jebba Dam is a hydroelectric power plant across the Niger river in Nigeria. It has a power generating capacity of 578.4 megawatts, enough to power over 364,000 homes. It is one of the three hydroelectric power stations that power Nigeria 24/7.
In the memory of a European explorer named Mungo Park, a monument was erected in Jebba between the twin bridges and serves as a tourists centre. The cenotaph was built in remembrance of the shipwreck he had there when he was trying to trace the source of the Niger which led to his death.
Travellers could go hiking at the Juju Rock Formation. Juju Rock is a large granite island-hill formation located in the Niger River area, Jebba. It’s on the island people often refer to as the Ancient Jebba. Locals consider it as the wife of the Juju Rock as it has the same rock formation and is a look-alike to the Juju Rock. It is not too far from the river bank and can be easily spotted.
