Wikki warm spring, Natural spring in Bauchi State, Nigeria.
The Wikki Warm Spring features both warm and cold water sources that flow side by side without mixing, creating distinct temperature zones.
A Baptist missionary, Reverend John S McGee, discovered the spring in the 1950s and established a youth camp that operated until 1978.
Local narratives tell of two wives of a hunter who transformed into the warm and cold springs following a disagreement between them.
The spring maintains temperatures reaching 70 degrees Celsius at its source and requires an entrance fee of 500 Naira per visitor.
The spring sits within 116 hectares of dense forest that provides habitats for numerous plant and animal species in Bauchi State.
