Umbrella Rock is a striking natural rock formation near Boti Falls in the Yilo Krobo District of the Eastern Region. The rock is balanced in such a way that it resembles an umbrella and provides stunning views of the surrounding landscape.True to its name, the rock looks like an enormous stone umbrella, with a wide, flat boulder precariously balanced atop a narrow pedestal. It offers not only a geological marvel but also a panoramic viewpoint that stretches over forest canopies, hills, and farmlands of the Akyem and Krobo lands. The rock is often seen as a symbol of balance and endurance, having withstood centuries of wind and rain erosion. Climbing to the site is a moderate hike through a beautiful, quiet woodland adding a sense of adventure to the experience.This natural wonder is also closely tied to the Akaa and Boti Falls trail, forming a triad of eco-tourism gems in the region. It’s a favorite among photographers, hikers, and school excursion groups.The umbrella rock is large enough to shelter about 12-15 people beneath it.Visitors enjoy taking creative photos standing under the umbrella.The trek includes scenic forest paths, butterflies, and sometimes local guides telling folk stories. It combines geology, adventure, and local legend in one site
