Linkwasha Camp

Linkwasha Camp is situated in a private concession in the enormously productive south-eastern corner of Hwange National Park. On the edge of the famed Ngamo Plains, the camp offers fantastic summer game viewing. As its location stands sentry over a magnificent plain, this region is also a magnet for game viewing year-round, especially in the dry winter months. As a Classic Camp, Linkwasa is a luxury tented camp offering stylish and spacious accommodations with superb facilities. All bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms and private decks overlooking the wild and remote surroundings.

The fresh, open and airy design of Linkwasha Camp is complemented by an eclectic mix of contemporary interiors with the original spirit and essence of safari life. There are eight en-suite luxury tents and one family tent looking out over the surrounding plain. The main area consists of various multi-level decks, where you will find the dining area, bar, pool and a winter lounge complete with library. The decks give you a perfect vantage point for the abundant waterhole.

Sleep Under the Stars!
At night you can opt to sleep out at Scott’s Pan, a Star Bed situated roughly 15 minutes from Linkwasha. The small waterhole, directly in front of Scott’s Pan, is a magnet for wildlife and it is not uncommon to spot animals arriving for a late night drink as you sit having a nightcap of your own. Wake up to watch the sunrise and look out to see the animals come through for a morning drink.

Game drives in open Land Rovers
Hwange National Park is the largest game reserve in Zimbabwe at 14 651 km² with varied habitats and vegetation types – meaning that game drives are exciting with always something new to be seen. (Wind-resistant ponchos are provided during winter months.)

Walking safaris
Hwange was proclaimed some 80 years ago and has served as a haven for one of the densest concentrations of game in Africa. There is no better way to experience this park than on foot with one of our experienced safari guides.

Evening drives
The Hwange ‘night-act’ includes nocturnal species such as lesser bushbaby, spotted hyena, leopard, lion, Selous mongoose, pangolin, caracal, porcupine, scrub hare, springhare and even honey badger.

Village visit
An authentic village experience takes place in a manner that is respectful to all parties. Usually around four hours and guided by one of the local villagers or a Wilderness guide, it often includes a guided tour of the school, meeting the headman or headwoman and enjoying cultural exchanges with the villagers.
