Makalolo Plains Safari Camp, Zimbabwe
The camp is situated in a remote area
within the vast Hwange National Park. It is one of the few camps
built within the park. Hwange is legendary for its wonderful array
of wildlife and massive herds of Elephant and Buffalo – especially
in the dryer winter months. There are excellent opportunities to
view game from open 4x4 Land Rovers during the early morning and
late afternoon when game is most active. Foot safaris are also offered,
and are accompanied by an armed professional guide. The camp is
set in a unique location, overlooking the Samavundhla Pan that attracts
game in good concentrations. The entire camp is raised up onto wooden
boardwalks and platforms, giving guests excellent views over the
waterhole and floodplain in front of the camp. Accommodation consists
of nine large, comfortable tented rooms with en-suite shower, toilet
and basin all with hot and cold running water. There is an outdoor
shower too for those who enjoy showering under the stars! The lighting
in the rooms is battery powered so there is peace and quiet in camp.
Meals are enjoyed in the separate raised dining area. There is also
a lounge, pub and plunge pool. The camp has hides overlooking the
waterhole, which allow guests to enjoy close up game viewing.
