Overview
About Wilderness Linkwasha
Wilderness Linkwasha sits beside a waterhole on the edge of the Ngamo Plains in Hwange National Park. Eight standard tents and one family unit overlook the surrounding landscape, with the family living room converting into a second bedroom. Game drives explore the private concession, while the sunken hide offers close views of wildlife visiting the waterhole. Back in camp, a swimming pool and shared lounge provide space between outings, and a sleep-out deck offers a night under the stars. The fully inclusive rate covers meals, local drinks, laundry, park fees and twice-daily camp activities. Children aged six and over are welcome.
“The waterhole and sunken hide make wildlife watching part of camp life, not just the game drives. A strong choice for photographers and families with children aged six and over who want a small tented camp with a pool.”
