SIPI FALLS UGANDA
Sipi Falls, a series of three majestic waterfalls, is one of the most popular tourist attractions in Uganda. Found on the slopes of Mount Elgon, Sipi is famous for its breathtaking landscape and beauty. The three falls, which are the top attraction, are unique and of varying lengths.
The first waterfall cascades over a cliff of 85m, its water disappearing into the ground before reappearing a few meters ahead and flowing downstream. It has a splendid view, offering a great backdrop for photographs.
The second waterfall has pools and cascades before the waterfall. There’s a small cave and rocks at the base of the falls. This waterfall can be reached and explored closely during the Sipi Falls Hike. However, you can also view this waterfall from the main highway as you journey towards Kapchorwa town.
The main Sipi Falls is over 100m long. This magnificent waterfall is the easiest to access from Sipi. You can view it from the top and also slope down to the base for a more adventurous experience. Moreover, this is close to most of the resorts. You could book one of them and listen to the roar of water as you sleep.
