Jigawa State

Jigawa tour packages are for travellers curious about the quieter north, where Hausa traditions and wide savannah meet seasonal wetlands. The state capital Dutse is a young, orderly city, while the Hadejia-Nguru Wetlands are a Ramsar-listed floodplain with thousands of migratory birds from Europe and Asia. At Birnin Kudu rock shelters hold ancient paintings and carvings, and the old emirate towns of Hadejia and Kazaure keep traditional palaces and market life. Most of the state is rural, so plan with a local guide and check current advisories.
