Many stories have been told as regards the history of this site. The most striking of all the tales is that the warm and cold water were wives of a man who, after a long contest, turned into springs through magical means. The troublesome wife became the warm water, while the gentle and peace-loving wife became the cold water. However, it is largely believed that the spring was discovered by a Baptist Missionary in 1950.
Asides the spectacular waterfall where warm and cold water flow side by side, Ikogosi has a well-designed trail that leads to the meeting point of cold and warm water which is guaranteed to amaze nature lovers.
