Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The annual Adaklu Mountain Hike, a major highlight of the Asogli Te Za celebrations, attracted hundreds of participants this year, with hikers from across Ghana and beyond converging on the iconic peak to blend fitness, culture, and celebration.<\/b><\/p>\n

The 2025 edition saw adventure seekers, tourists, and locals undertake the challenging but rewarding climb up the 580-metre mountain, one of the Volta Region\u2019s most recognisable natural landmarks.<\/p>\n

Organisers described the hike as more than an exercise, noting that it is also an immersive cultural experience that preserves the history of the Ewe people, who once used the mountain as a refuge during wartime.<\/p>\n

Mr. Elorm Adzakro, a guide with Adakluto Tour, managers of the hike, told that safety remained a top priority. \u201cWe ensure everyone has the guidance needed to climb safely while enjoying the adventure,\u201d he said. He added that the growing numbers each year highlight the increasing appeal of eco-tourism in the region, boosting local businesses while preserving cultural heritage.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s climb was marked by lively scenes at the mountain\u2019s base, where food vendors, souvenir sellers, and cultural troupes added colour and vibrancy to the event.<\/p>\n

Mr. Divine Bosson, former Ho Municipal Chief Executive, described his first experience as unforgettable. \u201cIt was tough, but the view at the top was worth every step,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

For Mr. Kwesi Ofori, a returning hiker, the climb has become a personal tradition. \u201cI come every year because it connects me to my roots. It\u2019s not just about the mountain; it\u2019s about community, history, and identity,\u201d he told GNA.<\/p>\n

Foreign tourists also joined locals in song, dance, and storytelling at rest points along the climb, creating a vibrant atmosphere of cultural exchange.<\/p>\n

As night fell, an after-party featuring music, dance, and performances by local artistes crowned the day, described by organisers as \u201ca celebration of accomplishment and unity.\u201d<\/p>\n

Residents noted that the event continues to position the Volta Region as a leading adventure tourism destination, bringing economic benefits to communities while attracting national and international attention.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis hike has grown into a festival on its own. It is now a tradition that strengthens Asogli Te Za while promoting tourism,\u201d said Mr. Godwin Kporha, a local vendor.<\/p>\n

Organisers assured that next year\u2019s edition would be \u201cbigger and more exciting,\u201d urging those who missed out this year to prepare early.<\/p>\n
