Camp Hwange

Hwange

Remote and wild, the camp is an ideal spot for adventure seekers and seasoned safari goers alike. Situated in one of the most southern and pristine areas of Hwange National Park, this small, private camp is a safe and comfortable home base for a unique and untamed wilderness experience. 

The camp has no power, wifi, or mobile phone service, this remote location is the best form of digital detox. Days start and end around the campfire, all meals are enjoyed outside, and the creative camp chefs cook up tasty treats over an open fire

Three tents are set up as twins—Two ¾ beds and an ensuite open air bathroom with toilet and bucket shower. There are two tents are set up as doubles—One double bed and an ensuite open air bathroom with bucket shower.

The Jozi experience is ideal as a three-night add-on to one of the other camps in Hwange. Activities range from up-close-and-personal encounters with large herds of elephants to mountain biking and walking along wildlife footpaths. 

While we have awarded tented lodge with only 2 "tents", the luxury of simplicity is what Jozi is about; tented accommodation with a ‘star bed’ option, and dining al fresco around the campfire, as close to nature as you can get.

Please note this camp may be closed between December and April, depending on the weather. Please check with us for availability during these months.

Jozibanini Lodge

Hwange

Remotely located within a private concession in the northern part of Hwange National Park, the lodge offers an exceptional safari experience. 

The main guest area and nine spacious thathed chalets are built on decks overlooking a waterhole, which is frequented by large numbers of elephants. Each chalet has its outside shower as well as a ceiling fan, tea and coffee-making facilities and a safe and private balcony. Up to two children over 7 years of age can share a tent with an adult.

Meals are served on the open-air deck of the main lodge or in the bush. There’s a small swimming pool which is great for a refreshing dip if you can get there before the elephants do!
 
Activities include game drives, walking safaris, and night game drives.  You might find the famous elephant hunting lions! The best part of camp life is that it is completely flexible, choose to relax on your private balcony with an early morning cup of coffee or whittle away the last of the daylight hours on the main lodge deck with sundowners, watching the wildlife amble up for a drink at the waterhole—during the driest times of the year, elephants can pass by the hundreds. 

Please note this camp may be closed between December and April, depending on the weather. Please check with us for availability during these months.

How our Tent Ratings work

These are based on our personal experience of the hotel, camp or lodge and should not be compared against ratings you find elsewhere. We intend to guide you and don’t be put off by a low tent rating as some of our favourites fall into the 2 and 3-tent categories.​

It is also important to bear in mind that standards vary from country to country and a 4-tent hotel in South Africa cannot be compared with a 4-tent hotel in another part of the world. 

To summarise our grading system, we have considered the following.
