As you enter Jangwani Camp, the experience begins with a quiet stairway and a friendly restaurant welcoming you on the left. Few realize that descending that same staircase leads to a world of adrenaline and scenic magic.
A Dramatic Descent & First Thrill
The stairs drop steeply toward the ziplining tower, rising above the forest canopy. Stepping off from the first tower, you glide above the treetops and over the roaring River Sagana, landing near the other end of the dam. At that end, another tower and rope line bring you swiftly to ground level—an exhilarating flight over rushing waters.
Riverside Ambience at the Restaurant
At the foot of the stairs lies the camp’s central restaurant, anchored by a cozy fireplace and offering sweeping views of the Sagana River dam. The scene is filled with the sound and sight of rapids, truly setting the tone for the adventure ahead.
Accommodation Tour: From Classic to Luxury
Led by Mr. Eric Omondi Owira, the Food & Beverage Manager, you visit the original tented area—simple, comfortable, and nestled close to nature. Then comes the highlight: luxury accommodation, with raised tents perched on cliff edges overlooking waterfalls. These rooms blend rustic charm with upscale comfort.
Back near the tents, you glimpse the raft storage area—Jangwani Camp provides and maintains all rafting equipment. There’s no need to bring your own.
Expansive New Campsite & Team‑Building
Next, you explore the new campsite, a larger area designed for groups and team-building retreats. There’s even an in-house team-building coach, so companies don’t need external facilitators. Self-catering options are available, making this ideal for corporate or group trips.
Activities That Pack a Punch
Right beside the new tents is the archery range, ready for target practice and friendly competition. So in total, visitors can enjoy four core experiences:
- Water rafting on the Sagana rapids
- Ziplining high above the river
- Archery in a scenic outdoor range
- Facilitated team-building activities
Just Two Hours from Nairobi
