Chappal Waddi (also known as the Mountain of Death) is located in Nigeria and, at 2,419 m (7,936 ft), is the country's highest point.[2] This peak, whose original and indigenous name is "Gang Peak" is steeped in enthralling ancient Mambilla mythologies. It represents the heaqauarters of some ancient mythological organizations. It is located in Taraba State, near the border with Cameroon, on the edge of the Gashaka Gumti Forest Reserve and the Gashaka-Gumti National Park on the Mambilla Plateau.[3] It is a part of the Bamenda-Alantika-Mandara Mountain chain of Nigeria and Cameroon.[4]. According to local Mambilla legends, good fotunes or bad poor harvests in the agricultural cycles of the Mambilla Plateau were determined at Gang Mountain.
