Sipi Falls: In the Foothills of Mount Elgon

Sometime back, we got the chance to explore Sipi Falls, just two hours from our home in Soroti. We hiked through the foothills of Mount Elgon to explore 3 different waterfalls. Not only were the waterfalls spectacular and worth the trip, but hiking through the valleys seemed almost magical... as we walked through coffee fields and along ridges boasting the view of banana plantations and various farming practices.
Enjoy the pictures!

Our cozy cabin where we stayed the night... not the best sleep in the world (who knew that a bird could get stuck in a roof the whole night??)


Women washing clothes at the top of one of the falls... a common sight in this country

Is this a one way??
