Jinja
Jinja has some of the world’s best white-water rafting on its doorstep, and is emerging as the adrenaline centre of East Africa. Jinja is the source of the mighty Nile, the world’s longest river, which winds its way from here through Egypt and Sudan to the Mediterranean.
The source of the Nile is one of the most spectacular white-water rafting destinations in the world and for many visitors to Uganda a rafting trip is the highlight of their visit.
Quad biking along the beautiful banks of the Victoria Nile is a real blast. It is the way to explore the paths and trails that crisscross the nearby countryside. This is huge fun if you’ve never tried this sort of thing before, and those with experience will love some of the longer trips.
Nile High Bungee is Uganda’s only bungee jump, a 44m plunge into the Nile River. Set close to the riverbank, it looks scary from above but is very safe. Look at the arrow on the roof and pull out your finest swan dive.
