What are the most spectacular roads in Nigeria?

Located in the western part of Africa, Nigeria shares borders with the Republic of Benin, Chad, Cameroon and Niger. Covering an area of about 923,768 square kilometers, Nigeria is the most populous country on the continent. It’s located in the tropics, having a very humid climate.

It’s important to plan carefully when to drive in the country, as the weather varies from tropical in the south to arid in the north, with a rainy season from April to October and a dry season from November to March. Due the defiant climate of the country, with significant variations in temperature and rainfall, the country has evident transportation problems during the rainy season, especially on unpaved roads. The most spectacular roads in the country include A winding road to Obudu Mountain, a peak at 1.652m (5,419ft) above sea level located on the Obudu Plateau; and driving the Mamfe-Ekok Road, one of the toughest drives in the world.
