Top of Murchison Falls; The World’s Most Powerful Falls, Uganda hiking and Wildife Safari<\/h3>\n

Once described as the most spectacular thing to happen to the Nile River<\/a> along its 6700km length, the 50m-wide river is squeezed through a 6m gap in the rock and crushes through this narrow gorge with unbelievable power.<\/p>\n

\"\"The 45m waterfall was featured in the Kathrine Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart film The African Queen. <\/em>Murchison Falls<\/a> was even stronger back then, but in 1962 massive floods cut a second channel creating the smaller Uhuru Falls 200m to the north.<\/p>\n

There’s a beautiful walking trail from the top down to the river, and the upper stretch of this path offers view to the Uhuru falls, which a boat trip will not bring you close enough to appreciate.<\/p>\n

If you take a launch trip, the captain will let you off at the trailhead and a ranger will meet you there. This is also a good way for campers to get the camp site at the top of the falls. Hiking to the top of Murchison falls<\/a> takes about 45 minutes.<\/p>\n
