Linkwasha Camp, Hwange National Park, Zimbabwe
A Luxury Tented Camp in Zimbabwe
Camp Details
Linkwasha is positioned on the edge of Hwange National Park’s productive Ngamo Plains, an area renowned for some of the best year-round game viewing on Earth. During summer, the plains teem with wildlife, and in winter they gather in abundance at the many Wilderness-supported waterholes throughout the park.
Revel in the space and privacy of Linkwasha’s nine expansive tented suites, which overlook a waterhole frequented by thirsty herds of buffalo and antelope. The main area opens out to tiered decks that lead down to the camp’s pool, where it’s a first-come-first-served affair, as elephants often quench their thirst here on hot afternoons.
Shaded by leadwood trees, nine elegant tented suites, including one that accommodates families, offer views onto the camp’s waterhole and the busy plains beyond. Neutral tones and bold Ndebele patterns create a striking, authentically African atmosphere.
