On its long way to the Mediterranean, the Nile is pushed through a narrow opening in the rocks, forming the spectacular Murchison waterfalls.
When we moved closer to that point, we could see how the water was sometimes almost blocked for a short while, after which the pressure again overcame the blockade and caused an overflow of water, taking enormous amounts of water down while doing so. Walking still further down on the side of Murchison Falls, we got soaked as we continued looking down into the narrow gorge. After the narrow opening, the cliffs do not open much, and the water causes a spectacular reverse waterfall by being hurled into the air again before it reaches the lower part of the river Nile.
