About Kulungu Waterfall

Kulungu Waterfall is a waterfall at Fume in the Ho West District of Ghana's Volta Region. Fume, also written Fume-Avatime or Avatime-Fume, is a town on the Eastern Corridor highway and one of the seven Avatime communities that celebrate the Amu Festival. The falls are listed among the waterfalls of the Volta Region, and the name also appears in some social posts as Gulungu or Kulugu.

The waterfall sits in forest near Fume, at the foot of the Avatime hills. Wikipedia gives coordinates of 06°52′19.78″N 00°25′4.19″E for the town of Fume; these are not coordinates for the waterfall itself, so the exact position of the falls is not established by the available sources.

For a visitor, the appeal is straightforward: a waterfall in a forested part of the Avatime hills, reached from a town on a main highway. Community and social media posts describe a short forest walk or hike to the falls and cold water year-round. Those accounts are informal rather than official, so treat the length and difficulty of the walk, and the condition of the water, as unconfirmed.

Practical planning information is limited. No official operator page, entrance fee, opening hours, or contact details were found in this research. There is no verified information on guided tours, facilities, parking, or accessibility. Visitors should expect to arrange their own transport and to confirm locally, on arrival in Fume, whether access is currently possible and what arrangements apply.

This entry is deliberately conservative. The waterfall's identity and general setting are supported, but its precise location, access route, and visitor arrangements remain unknown from the sources reviewed.
