After breakfast, you are transferred by road toΒ Hwange National Park. On arrival at the park, you are met by the camp and enjoy a game-viewing transfer byΒ 4Γ4 vehicle to The Hide.
Hwange National Park is Zimbabweβs premier game park. Hwange is big game country with massive herds of elephants, especially visible at the end of the dry season in September, as well as lion, buffalo, hyena, giraffe, zebra, wildebeest sable, roan and other antelope. Game-viewing in Hwange is made easier by the shallow salt pans throughout the park. These natural salt pans offer the perfect cooling mud bath for elephants. Here you take part in early morning and late afternoon game drives in open 4Γ4 vehicles and game walks.
The Hide is a classic tented safari lodge on the eastern boundary of Hwange which is owner-run. A tented camp is perhaps the definitive African safari experience, as you are able to hear the sounds of the bush all around you in the cool of the night. The small size of The Hide is one of its differentiating features, as this means that you have an intimate atmosphere in camp, as well as a greater feeling of the untrammelled open spaces of the bush when you are on a game drive. The Hideβs main area is a picturesque A-frame thatched lodge with dining room and sun lounge downstairs and a large lounge/viewing area upstairs.
Alternative Option β Opt for Somalisa Camp in Hwange (alongside its sister lodges of Bumi Hills on Lake Kariba and Kanga Camp at Mana Pools)
