Jinja – Source of the Nile

Known as Africa’s adventure capital, Jinja sits where Lake Victoria spills into the Nile, offering world-class white-water rafting on Grade III–V rapids. Beyond adrenaline sports like kayaking and tubing, you can bungee off the Nile Bridge, mountain-bike scenic trails to Bujagali Falls or take a sunset cruise to the exact point where the river begins. Markets, craft cooperatives and vibrant nightlife along the riverfront make Jinja an energetic base for both thrill-seekers and culture enthusiasts.
