PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS:
- Our understated little bush-camp has been in the beating eastern heart of the park for years, where the wildlife is most concentrated. Sorties from here, encountering the great mammals of Africa, can be thrilling and hard to tear yourself away from. So, in camp we retreat – but with Nature up very close – a quiet, canvas refuge, only disturbed by our elephant visitors. They just don’t make them like this anymore.
- Embark on a walking safari and venture to the ancient baobabs which offer fantastic photographic opportunities.
- Grab your binoculars and head out in the early morning or afternoon on a birdwatching adventure. The park is home to a fascinating array of species.
- Eat out! The camp serves up delicious breakfasts in the middle of the African wilderness.
