7 Hobbies to Try That Won’t Cost You a Fortune

Hold up… wait a minute. Did I hear that your idea of a hobby is scrolling on TikTok until 2 a.m. because having a hobby in Lagos costs a fortune?

If that’s you, you need to be part of this conversation because there are so many fun things you can do with your friends without breaking the bank. So, here are seven hobbies you can try this weekend.


Go-Karting

Have you ever watched Formula 1 and thought, “I could do that”? Well, here’s your chance to test that theory and prove yourself. Rally your crew, hit the track, and find out who has real speed or who’s just all blabbing.


You can go-kart at Lekki, Upbeat Recreation Centre, with prices ranging from ₦6,000.

Paintball

Do you have frenemies you want to shoot but need to keep it legal? This is your sign to play paintball with them. You’re guaranteed an adrenaline rush; just keep your cool before you accidentally go full Rambo.

 

You can play paintball at Funplex Resort, CMD Road, Magodo Phase II, Lagos, Nigeria with prices ranging from ₦7,000 – ₦15,000 per person.

 

Archery
If you want to find out who in your friend group has the best aim, just in case of an emergency… or maybe a heist, try archery. It’s perfect for a chill day out, with just enough competition to make everyone take it personally.

 

You can try archery at Zen Archery, Teslim Balogun Stadium, for ₦15,000 per person.

 

Rock Climbing

For gym bros and sis who love a good challenge and don’t mind putting those muscles to work, rock climbing is for you. Your arms might hate you afterwards, but hey, at least you tried something new.

 

You can go rock climbing at Weland Climbing Gym, Landmark Lagos, for ₦10,000 per adult.
