Rising above the surrounding peaks, the Holy Mountain is both a spiritual landmark and a historical refuge. It holds the distinction of being the highest point in the Obudu Mountain range and has long been revered by locals and visitors alike. The mountain earned its name from early missionaries who discovered its serene summit and began using it as a place of prayer and fellowship. During the Nigerian Civil War, it served as a strategic hideout for villagers, with bunkers still visible today—silent witnesses to its role as a sanctuary in times of conflict. Accessible by a single winding trail, the Holy Mountain offers a challenging yet rewarding hike. At the summit, visitors are greeted by panoramic views that stretch across the Sankwala Mountains and into neighbouring Cameroon. The air is crisp, the silence profound, and the sense of elevation, both physical and spiritual, is unmistakable. Many guests report feeling a deep sense of peace and clarity at the top, making it a popular destination for meditation, reflection, and even small group worship. The Holy Mountain is not just a scenic viewpoint; it’s a place where history, faith, and nature converge in powerful harmony.
