Adventure Details

White Water Rafting: White water rafting at the source of the Nile river is one of the most fun adventure activities that you can experience. Volunteers will have the opportunity to experience the thrills of white water rafting. With rapids from grade 1-5, the "Mighty White Nile" has made Uganda a world wonder for white water rafting and kayaking enthusiasts. For adrenaline junkies, white water rafting is therefore an absolute must. Whilst we made this thrilling experience as a starting point for our adventure expeditions, we have found that rafting is a fantastic way for new volunteers to get to know each other.

After a fantastic day on the water, volunteers can relax and enjoy a well-deserved buffet, followed by drinks and an overnight camping at the spectacular Bujagali camp which overlooks the longest river in the world, the Nile. For those with a spirit of adventure this activity can be coupled with bungee jumping at the Nile High camp which is the only bungee jumping platform in East Africa and is optional. Come experience the adrenaline as you plunge from 44m in to the legendary River Nile.

Murchison Falls National Park: Murchison occupies more than 1,500 square miles. A grassy savannah on the banks of Victoria Nile. The fast moving Nile River is funneled through a 20 foot fissure in the African bedrock. Then it plunges 150 vertical feet. After it's amazing drop, the river continues to its junction with Lake Albert, from which it immediately travels northward and joins Lake Albert. Murchison Falls National Park plains are well stocked with elephants, lions, Ugandan kobs, giraffes, and Jackson's Hartebeast. A boat carries visitors on a 7-mile journey to the foot of the falls passing hundreds of hippos and crocodiles.

Bwindi Impenetrable Forest: Bwindi is situated in Southwestern Uganda. The park is a hilly countryside with some remnant low land forest. This is the richest forest in Uganda in terms of plant species. It is one of the few areas in East Africa where low land and montane communities merge. There are over 300 species of birds and 200 species of tree shrubs. Dense ground cover is comprised of herb vines, shrubs, and trees. It is best known for Gorilla trekking but also provides refugee to elephants, chimpanzees, monkeys and various small antelopes as well as 23 bird species restricted to the Albertine Rift Valley.

Queen Elizabeth National Park: The park was gazetted in 1952 when Queen Elizabeth II visited the area. It lies to the south of the Rwenzori mountain range and soars upward within a dozen miles of the Northern boundary. It is spread along the eastern shore of the rift valley's Lake Edward covering 2,500 square kilometers. The park's northern section is particularly scenic. When the weather permits there are tremendous views of Rwenzori peaks from the plains, which are decorated with giant candelabra trees. In the northeast section of the park is Kyambura Gorge where there are many chimpanzees for visitors to enjoy.

Lake Mburo National Park: It is located 230 kilometers southwest of Kampala, Uganda (3-5 hour drive). It has a varying landscape of open plains, acacia grasslands, and marshes. This park is home to a huge array of flora and fauna. About 68 different species of mammals can be found within its borders. The park has approximately 313 different species of birds, including Uganda's national emblem, the Crested Crane.

Kibale Forest National Park: This reserve is inhabited by a wonderful diverse community of animals, which include baboon, chimpanzee, monkey, and the grey-cheeked Mangabey. Kbale hosts a population of more than 1,000 chimpanzees. Common monkey species include the acrobatic red colobus, red-tailed monkey, and blue monkey. These animals have been the subjects of long term research projects. So they are tame and easy to observe. A trail grid has been cut into the forest to facilitate walking. Kibale is located east of Rwenzori, near the town of Fort Portal.
