Getting there

Car

If you are driving from Abuja, take the A2 highway heading southeast towards Lokoja. After approximately 160 kilometers, turn onto the A3 highway towards Enugu. Continue for about 40 kilometers until you reach Ogbunike. Once in Ogbunike, follow signs for Ifite Rd. The cave entrance is located at 5VH5+MP5, Ifite Rd, Ogbunike 433103, Anambra. Parking is available near the entrance for a small fee of about 200 Naira.

Public Transportation (Bus)

To reach Ogbunike by bus, first travel to Onitsha by taking a bus from major cities like Abuja or Lagos to Onitsha. Bus fares range from 3,000 to 5,000 Naira depending on your departure city. Once in Onitsha, board a local bus or 'keke' (tricycle) heading to Ogbunike. The fare for this leg is usually around 200 Naira. Inform the driver you are going to Ogbunike Cave, and they will drop you off near the entrance on Ifite Rd.
