Bujagali Falls: A waterfall along the Nile River, perfect for white-water rafting, kayaking, and relaxation

Bujagali Falls used to be a very popular site to see raids and waterfalls on the Nile. Unfortunately a dam constructed down stream has raised the level of the water to cover the falls. However there is an option to take boat tour for about 2 hours to travel a few Km up the river to the base of the Owens falls Dam where there are still some rapids.

Located in Jinja—Uganda’s adventure capital—the Itanda Falls are rapids on the White Nile River, popular for both whitewater rafting and high-level kayaking.

It is an alternative to the more popular and powerful Murchison Falls, and Bugjagali Falls, which has become submerged due to dam construction.
