Meaning ‘heaven’ in our local language, Mwamba is the quintessential African bushcamp. Our intimate camp features just 4 tranquil chalets, made from woven reed, thatch and other natural materials.
Each chalet is set along the banks of the dry, meandering Mwamba riverbed with comfortable, shaded verandas from which to enjoy the abundant birdlife and feeling of total serenity. Clean and silent solar power provides each room with lighting and cooling fans for the summer months. The ensuite, outdoor bathrooms elevate the bush experience with double basins complemented by stunning copper tapware, beautiful live-edge mirrors, and showers tucked into the trees for a gorgeous back-to-nature feel.
Delicious meals and stories of the day’s encounters are shared in our bush-style “chitenge”, set under the deep shade of huge ebony trees, while the spacious deck offers a relaxing space with breathtaking views of the Mwamba river. A spectacular sunset viewing point on top of a large termite mound and a glowing campfire under the stars completes the camp’s friendly and personal atmosphere.
When not out exploring the bush, guests can enjoy the camps famous 'Last waterhole hide'. A short walk from the camp, this productive hide is truly a wildlife enthusiasts dream spot.
