Camping at Noah’s Ark
Kiiza Kalamantu Calah asked:
The roar of Sipi falls, fighting an unending war wit rocks easily blends with the melodious sounds of the birds for Uganda bird watching safaris and insects playing in the foliage around the cliff.
The resulting natural music ia owesome and soothing. Every now and then, the tune is spiced up by a rumbling sound from vehicles snaking their way up the Kapcworwa –Mbale highway, a stone’s throw a way.
Kapchworwa is a beautiful mountainous area near Mountain Elgon. The landscape’s decorated with cultivated fields and water falls in several areas.
People who want to enjoy the beauty of Kapchorwa also known as the land of water falls, caves and donkeys, can camp a few kilometres before the town.
Amidst the soothing sound, a goat is slaughtered as picnickers at the hotel unpack their bags.
Noah’s Ark picnic site is seated above an unnamed smaller water fall on River Sipi. The river has three main waterfalls with the highest almost 100 metres, excluding that at Noah’s Ark recreational site whose trade-mark is the sound of water washing a way all that stands I its way.
The camping site is the latest proriater of Noah’s Ark Hotels based in Kapchorwa The hotel opened years ago as a Katogo kiosk offering free Katogo every morning to visitors who visit the palace.
The hotel also known as ‘the home of great people runs the first sports bar and night club in Kapchorwa town. Noah’s ark has got enough rooms and space for conference facilities built, suitable for camping with transport to the camping sites.
As a couple of four tourists who were from a gorilla safari in Bwindi gorilla frorest wait for the goat being roasted, lotich paces up and down making sure that every body is comfortable and that no glass or bottle is empty or half full.
The aroma of roasted meat attracts several village dogs which try to become part of the guest in vain.
Finally, the barbecue, ready. A basic table, made of thick timber is the banquet. Great is the combination of the roasted meat and bananas washed down with a cold soda. But even greater is the sound of the water continuously fighting its way through a narrow gorge, almost under visitor’s feet. The on looking dogs, hopefully praying that the next missile hurled at them turns out to be a bone, seen to be the only ones left out of the party.
