Camp Chitubu
Seven tents on a ridge above a spring in northwest Hwange National Park
Furnished with teak vanities and brass taps, the seven tents at Camp Chitubu occupy a ridge overlooking a natural spring that holds water year-round. The camp sits in the northwest corner of Hwange National Park, two kilometres from Mandavu dam, the park's largest water source. Each Bedouin-style tent is fitted with gauze windows, overhead fans, mosquito nets, and an en-suite bathroom with his-and-her basins and a rainforest shower head. Beds convert from twin to double. A family room holds a master bedroom and a separate children's bedroom sharing one en-suite bathroom. The camp remains unfenced.
Walking safaris depart with Zimbabwean professional guides trained in bush craft and animal tracking. Game drives run twice daily or as full-day expeditions in open 4x4 vehicles fitted with six tiered seats and USB charging points. Night drives reveal nocturnal species. Hwange National Park supports over one hundred mammal species and an estimated five hundred bird species. Elephant herds visit the spring at night. The camp offers rhino tracking, gourmet picnics, and a game-viewing hide. Laundry service, wireless internet, and battery charging are complimentary. You can hear lions from the tents after dark.
