Wilderness Linkwasha – Sunken Hide At The Waterhole In Front Of Camp
Below ground level, eye to eye with elephants at the water
Skip to product information
A dug-in hide positioned at the waterhole facing camp, low enough that visitors watch from below the animals' eye line. Elephants come to drink and wallow metres away, apparently unaware of anyone below the ground level. It suits a slow afternoon: settle in with binoculars, a camera and a bird guide, and wait for whatever arrives at the water. Wildlife in Hwange gathers wherever there is water, so the passing traffic can range from elephant herds to waterbirds working the shallows. No noise, no movement needed, just patience and a fixed spot to watch the waterhole's daily business unfold.
