Sipi Falls

Dramatic waterfalls and scenic hiking in Eastern Uganda

About Sipi Falls

Sipi Falls, located on the foothills of Mount Elgon in eastern Uganda, is a breathtaking natural wonder made up of three majestic waterfalls that cascade down rugged cliffs surrounded by lush greenery. The tallest of the falls plunges about 100 meters, creating a cool mist and offering dramatic views that attract nature lovers, hikers, and photographers alike. The Sipi area is also famous for its rich Arabica coffee, and visitors can enjoy guided coffee tours to learn about the farming and brewing process.

Adventurers can take part in activities like hiking along scenic trails, abseiling down the cliffs, birdwatching, and exploring nearby caves, while others come simply to relax and soak in the peaceful atmosphere. With its cool climate, stunning landscapes, and welcoming local communities, Sipi Falls is often considered one of Uganda’s most romantic and unforgettable destinations, perfect for couples, solo travelers, and families alike.
