There are a few legends surrounding the origin and discovery of the Warm Spring and have been passed down generations for centuries. According to one of such myths, the warm and cold springs were the two wives of a great hunter, who, constantly, quarreled with each other. One of his wives was said to be temperamental while the other was a quiet woman. One day, the two wives had a fight and after being rebuked by their husband, the temperamental wife changed to the warm spring while the quiet one turned to the cold spring.
When is the right time to visit Ikogosi warm spring
A particular time or season cannot be picked to be the best time to visit the spring. Because the magic of the spring calls out to visitors all year round.
It is very important to state here that the spring is not a deity that is being worship. Rather, it is the work of God that is being appreciated through the Spring
