Africa – Uganda – White Nile

Already twice I spent some time in Africa – Uganda on one of the best freestyle rivers in the world. I am talking about the White Nile. On my first trip I could enjoy Day 1 and Day 2 unspoilt. Rapids like “Bujagali Falls”, “Silverback”, “Escape Hatch” will soon disappear in a gigantic lake of a hydroelectric power plant. Thank God Day 2 and the wave “ Nile Special” is below that dam so during my second stay I concentrated on this section. My highlight was a full moon surf on “Nile Special” at 3 a.m. at very a high water level.
