About this stay

A stone terrace above the river, and whatever walks past it.

The camp sits on the bank where the Nile turns north. Tents are spaced far enough apart that you hear the river rather than your neighbours, and the terrace is where everybody ends up at six.

Where you will be

Murchison Falls · Northwestern Uganda

On the south bank where the Nile turns north, inside the park boundary.

The whole river squeezes through a cleft in the rock and falls into the gorge below. Upstream it widens again and the banks fill with hippo and elephant.

Getting there

Five to six hours from Kampala by road, or a short flight to Pakuba and a transfer.
