About this Experience
Mahoma Waterfalls Community Tour: Escape the noise and immerse yourself in the serene beauty of the Kasenda Crater Lakes region with the Mahoma Waterfalls Community Tour. This hidden gem, easily accessible from Fort Portal Tourism City, offers a refreshing encounter with Uganda's volcanic past and lush present. The Experience: A Journey to Tranquility • Location: Discover the falls nestled in the peaceful, scenic area of Ruteete, known for its gorgeously cool temperatures and rolling green hills. • The Trek: Enjoy a beautiful walking distance approach through the community, soaking in the local atmosphere before you even reach the main attraction. • Volcanic History: The falls are a natural spectacle created by River Mahoma, a river born from major volcanic activity 4,000 to 6,000 years ago (Middle Holocene). • The Falls: Watch the water elegantly cascade over ancient boulders and a rocky surface, creating a refreshing splash as it plunges into the forested valley below. • The Plunge Pool: Take a moment to enjoy the tranquility and, if you're brave enough, enjoy a bracing dip in the crystal-clear plunge pool at the base of the waterfall. Getting There: The Mahoma Waterfalls are easily reached from Fort Portal via the Fort Portal-Kamwenge Road, branching off at Kasisi and traveling through the scenic areas of Ruteete and Rwihamba. This is more than a walk; it's a refreshing escape into the heart of Uganda's most stunning crater landscape!
