Education is good sha, otherwise why will I leave my village come lagos go pay someone to enter bush?

Well, Lagos can be a stressed up place filled with criminals and other problems. That's why such a place like this exists for relaxation.
Unfortunately, the OP and friends entered traffic jam to get here. And after chilling out, enter traffic jam to get back home.

The less than 20 hectares of land that I have for sale in ibeju lekki boast much wild life than this. Showing us a monkey playing with an Heineken can as a proof is an insult

Op pls how far is this place from LCC

Hi, I think Lufasi is for nature lovers, I think your type will appreciate a club perhaps, somewhere more lively

Nigerias Zoo and resorts are running out of wildlife. Even common snakes are hard to see. Guess we have either eaten them or starved them to death.

But i was so sure to see a monkeys picture b4 opening this thread.

No, I am trying to say that education made it possible for bush to be turned into a tourist center.

All these Naija park wey stray animal fit chop persin

If You've Never Been To Lufasi Nature Park, Here Is What It Looks Like (pics)

Before diving deeper, here are a few things you should know about Lufasi Nature Park

LUFASI is an urban forest created for people to connect and interact with nature.


LUFASI sits on 20 hectares of land at the Majek area (Km 41) along the Lekki-Epe Express Way. It houses species like the Ekki “Iron Wood” tree (Lophira Alata), the critically endangered Hooded Vulture (Necrosyrtes Monachus) and the African Pied Hornbill (Tockus fasciatus).



The park is opened all year round and the opening times are as follows:

Weekdays & Saturdays (including Public Holidays) – 9:00am to 6:00pm
Sundays – 12:00pm to 6:00pm

Gate Fees:

Children – 500 Naira
Adults – 1000 Naira.



The Journey
Since it was a team of 10, I opted for a taxify cab instead of renting a bus which might cost more. Lufasi is really far from Onipanu (our departure point) so it’s just logical we set out early.

We Left around our converging point some minutes past 1pm and by 3:30, we were already honking at the main gate of the park.



The large smile accompanying the “welcome to Lufasi park” by the gate man gave me the first conviction that I’ve made the right choice.



Beside the car park (which is the first space on the right side of park once you enter) is the reception which was clad in bamboo trees. It reminded me of my adventures at Idanre Hills, only that this reception is smaller and the receptionist seems to be more professional.

I made the required payment of N10,000 in cash even thought there an option of POS. This payment granted us access to the facility and also a dedicated tour guide.



Now the team had to decide which should come first: a tour round the park or their discussion.

Majority went for the tour, so I fetched our assigned guide (a lady who I figured would be in her mid twenties). She wasn’t rude, in fact she went all out to ensure we found a superb space for the team.




In no time, the tour began. While our guide explained calmly all we needed to know about the 4-year-old park while I froze every interesting moment with my 50mm camera lens.



The Anatomy Of Lufasi Nature Park
The park is stylishly divided into 3 and the parts include:



1. The Reception area and car park

As earlier explained, this part is where every visitor gets to first see before accessing other parts of the park. The toilet (a considerably neat one) also belongs to this part.



2. The play area

This portion played host to the Chickens and tortoise spaces. The horse rescue centre and table games section stood on the left, directly opposite the children’s play ground, and a beach sand field for soccer. Far ahead was the cage of the monkeys (with a dedicated guide who explained in dept all the team needed to know about the ever lively mammals).











3. The fields

Stretching farther into the park is a large expanse of land featuring the artificial lake, a mini football field and the Ekki forest.





How Best to use Lufasi Nature Park
Couples quiet time

Lufasi is one of the cutest places to have a private time with your better half if you are tired of doing eateries and malls. the gentle whistling of the breeze and naturally cool atmosphere will sure blow your mind.

Children’s timeout

The safety of this park is what makes it really cool for Children, as they can get to learn about nature and as well have an amazing time on the playground for as long as they want.



Movie shoot

Not only did we encounter people who came to shoot a scene or two of a music video, we saw Reekado Banks, a popular Nigerian hip hop artist who also was around for a shoot, using another portion of the Park.

Family picnic

At every point in Lufasi Nature Park are stylishly designed sitting areas suitable enough for families to comfortably have a fun time without any disturbance whatsoever form other fun-seekers or the environmental pollution on the streets of Lagos.

Tips On having An Amazing Time

Go with people. It’s fun.
Wear Comfortable (long) clothes so as to prevent the flying insects
Go with Good DSLR camera (a good camera phone will do too)
Hire a cab or bus because you might be too tired after the tour to start jumping buses.
That’s it all for now.
