Kangulumira Uganda Africa
JungleNatureRemote

This spectacular lodge is situated next to the powerful streams of the River Nile in Uganda. It's a unique private property within six hectares of Kalagala Island.

Your adventure will start from Jinja, where you will take a boat ride to reach Lemala Wildwaters Lodge. That's the only way to reach this unique place.

The direct consequence of not having roads leading here is the untouched environment with no artificial noises to disturb your stay. Instead, you will listen to the beautiful sounds of the roaring rapids around you.

River Nile Uganda Kayaking

Location next to a wild river can mean just one thing; white-water rafting! The Nile is perfect for such adventures with its warm waters and tropical scenery.

However, you can try stand-up paddleboard tours on the calm waters for a less adrenalin-pumping option.
