Itinerary

1

Sipi Falls

Have an early cup of coffee / tea and prepare for pick ‐ up from your hotel in Kampala by 6:00 am. This is early enough to beat the menacing morning traffic jam of Kampala. You travel eastwards on the Kampala ‐ Jinja highway via Iganga through Mbale and head for Sipi, a 6 hour journey. Upon arrival and after a brief relaxation, you get a local guide to lead the hike, starting with the top‐most waterfall, descending down till the bottom waterfalls which is also the main Sipi Waterfall. The waterfalls measure 85 m, 75 m and 100 m respectively. The entire hike will take close to 4 hours or less depending on the level of fitness from the adventure hikers. However, given that you are descending for most of the hike, even first – time hikers can complete within 4 hours. Alternatively, you can choose to leave out one of the waterfalls when you feel the fatigue is unbearable. The hikes leading us to either of the waterfalls takes us through the Arabica coffee plantations. After the hike, transfer to one of the accommodations overlooking the main waterfalls for lunch. Thereafter embark on the return trip to Kampala city, arriving late evening.
