Wildwaters Lodge

OPENING 1ST JULY 2010

Situated mid-river between two explosive waterfalls, this island hide-away is unbelievable. Each of the expansive rooms is privately located amidst thick riverine forest with extraordinary views. Hundreds of metres of raised wooden walkways traverse the island linking the rooms. Outside baths on each of the private decks give visitors an unforgettable experience. Located less than 1 1/2 hours from Kampala on the Kayunga – Njeru road, Wildwaters.

Wildwaters Lodge is expected to become a popular retreat from the city, a place where guests will be able to immerse themselves in the beauty of the Nile in complete and utter privacy and bliss.

One of the television highlights this Spring in the UK is Joanna Lumley’s Nile.
Joanna spend a night in the still uncompleted Wildwaters Lodge and this is what she said when asked to pinpoint a favourite memory from her trip:

“Gosh – there were so many! In episode four, I meet an extraordinary New Zealander, Cam McLeay, who’s built a lodge in the middle of the fastest rapids of the Nile. As he hadn’t finished building all the rooms, we slept on sleeping bags sticking out over massive torrents, certain death if you fell in, and nowhere to go to the loo except the bushes! But it was thrilling! To be asleep with the river racing past and the sky dappled with stars, you just think: ‘This is the business; this is Africa’.”
