3 Minute Adventures

Nyero Rock Art & Lake Bunyonyi, Uganda

Episode 215

A road trip to Nyero Rock Art, a holiday on Lake Bunyonyi and a canoe paddle to Punishment Island. All must-do things in Uganda.

Nyero rock paintings date from before 1250 CE. They were first documented in 1913, and are the most important and well documented rock art sites in Uganda. I visit them with Johanna & Kjel. I then switch to Lake Bunyonyi in the south to explore Punishment Island (Akampene) with Cristina. A place where unwed pregnant girls were abandoned to suffer a shameful death.
