Our Roonterra Opinion

Reliable favorite

Camp Hwange is a great all-round property, but an absolute must for anyone looking for a genuine walking safari! The guides here are unrivalled, and the level of knowledge and training is unlike anywhere else I’ve ever visited.

Activities

Game drives and walking safaris

Expert guiding

Hides

Camp Hangwe’s activities consist of game drives and walking safaris.

The guiding is of an exceptionally high standard here.

This is a game-rich area of the park, with visitors sighting lion, elephant, buffalo, zebra, kudu, crocodile and hippo! Closer encounters are possible through spending time in the hides, particularly the wood-pile hide adjacent to the camp’s waterhole. This offers some fantastic photo opportunities!

Access & Location

It is situated in the western region of Hwange National Park, within a private concession and overlooking a wonderful waterhole forming part of Shumba Pans.

Make an Enquiry

This property is unfenced and located in a wildlife area, so large and potentially dangerous animals do pass through. If you opt to stay here, always be alert when walking around the camp and request for a member of staff to escort you if you have any concerns. Any guest is escorted after dark as a matter of course.

Facilities
The main lodge is a beautiful building, constructed from natural materials to blend into its setting.
