Moderate · Half-day+
Long drive · guided 3-falls hike · coffee
Moderate. ~6-7 hours' drive from Entebbe (1-2h from Mbale). Best as a multi-day trip given the distance and the amount to do - guided hikes to all three falls, coffee-farm tours, even abseiling. Entry/guide fees paid on arrival. Dry seasons (Jun-Aug, Dec-Feb) for the best hiking. Sturdy shoes, cash, malaria precautions.
