The Kabi River is a river in Uganda that is one of the sources of the Nile River.
The Kabi originates in central Uganda slightly west of Lake Kyoga and where the Victoria Nile exits from the lake. It flows southwest and receives the inflow of the Lugogo River and the Myanja River before joining the Nkusi River which flows into Lake Albert, which also receives the Victoria Nile and is the source of the Albert Nile River.
