CHENKU WATERFALL AND DODOWA FOREST EXPEDITIONS
The Chenku stream is joined by two other streams "Sanyade" and "Popotsi" before meandering into the sea.This falls which we have visited is not a big thing, and there are no large tilapia fish in the plunge pool - only some little fishes. What is impressive about this falls; also called Wuruduwurudu Falls are the huge, exposed rocks within the valley of the small Po stream. Then we saw a beautiful rock wall with a little cave under. This rock wall displays vividly the principle of cyncline/anticline folds that indicative of the massive forces that twisted the rocks during their formative years. The surrounding (once sacred but seriously denuded forest) is named after the Kyenku god whose shrine can be seen at Obosomase Another interesting plus is the Trekking Route from Obosomase to Dodowa, along ancient trade paths. Nature presents us with a tremendous variety of waterfall in Ghana and in Dodowa a town located in the Greater Accra Region, the district capital of ShaiOsu-Doku District. The city is 39km from the capital city of Accra is Tsenku Waterfall, the only waterfall in the Region. The enchanted Dodowa forest is the battle-field of the Kantamanso war which ended in 1826. The defeat of the Great Ashanti domination of the then Gold Coast. The giant Boabab tree at the edge of Dodowa is where the ceremony was held to mark the end of conflict. After about 30 minutes, hike in the forest, you will come to this beautiful Chenku Waterfall we are talking about which drops from a height of about 250 feet, running on a stratified rocks into a cool, clean and clear pool.
