The LCC in Lekki, Nigeria is a green oasis of calmth and peace away from the busy city life of Lagos. The centre was established in 1990 to promote and preserve the local biodiversity and to serve as an educational center. It was built by Chevron who still funds the center. The foundation wants to preserve Nigeria’s rich plant and animal species and ecosystems by raising environmental awareness and promoting responsibility.
The 78 hectare center is located in the Lekki Peninsula where we can find wetlands with swamp and savannah. Visitors can walk on the longest canopy in Africa and enjoy the park through several hiking trails and tree platforms helping you to observe the wildlife. The park is ideal to have a picnic with a panoramic view of the reserve.
