Mount Aduadu is enriched in wonderful sites for the eyes to see. Mount Aduadu has lost its relevance to Wli Water Falls and Mount Afadja due to the fact that it has been the talk of town for most years now. It surprises so many people when they come across the name Mount Aduadu whenever they are in search of mountains or nice tourist sites to visit.

Why has this mountain stayed outside the mouths of people? This is because surprisingly Mount Aduadu is the second highest mountain in Ghana after Mount Afadja.

Mount Aduadu has wonderful creatures around like the tall trees, the view of wonderful creatures like monkeys and other animals. It is a cool and nice place to have your quite with your lover and also good for relaxation of one’s mind.
