Hiking to lake Rantya

in #adventure7 years ago

My hiking group decided to take a hike to Lake Rantya, a man-made lake. It was made by the British in the late nineteen twenties. It is basically a crater that was formed due to tin mining activities. The city of Jos, Nigeria has scores of this type of lakes.
