- Muneef A. ★★★★★ : I went there on the 28th of June, 2025. The road access wasn't really okay. Though construction is on going in some part before getting to Owa Onire town. But from the town to the Owu fall is like a farm land route. It's good for hiking experience. But security isn't guaranteed. There's no enough self guide (direction signpost) indication milestones. Above all,, It was a great experience all through. Will I try it again? NO, Till I hear and see a good development about the place (road & infrastructures)
- Abdulquadri B. ★★★★★ : I visited the very highest waterfall in west Africa located in oowu, Ilorin kwara state. The view is very nice actually and I had fun there because I didn't go alone. There were like 26 of us that went there. I took an extra cloth with me for swimming. But seriously our government needs to do something about the route to the waterfall cos we had to walk for about an hour climbing and descending hills And again the maintenance there is quite poor cos people hardly visit there bcoz of how far the waterfall is to the motorable road.
