ARUU FALLS
Although the flow of the Agogo, the river broken by these enchanting falls (five cascades forming a front two hundred and fifty meters wide and several dozen high), can vary completely depending on the season, the viridity of the banks and the plethora of mossy rocks of this tributary of the Aswa, which delimits the districts of Gulu and Pader, make Aruu Falls an excellent idea for a trip. Be careful, if you want to go down to the foot of the falls, good walking shoes are essential (the rocks are sometimes very slippery). Also expect, when the water level is high, to have to take off your shoes to cross a torrent. The local guides, who are usually waiting for you at the community campsite (+256 774 591 229), have safety helmets, to avoid trauma in case of a fall . It is possible to bathe, at your own risk, in the lower bathing area. If you don't feel like climbing, don't worry, the views are also photogenic from the top of the falls. From Gulu, follow the Kitgum road (which has good surfacing) for about forty-five kilometres, then take the track (sometimes flooded in the rainy season and rather dusty in the dry season) which leaves on the right of the main road at the entrance to the village of Angagura. Then drive seven kilometres to reach Agogo. A good 4x4, as you will have understood, is indispensable at certain times of the year.
