Lebala
Camp
In
the Seswati language, Lebala means - wide open spaces, and
the scenery is dominated by vast plains with scattered palms
and tree clumps backed by wooded savannas. This wild expanse
is contrasted with the casual elegance and luxury of the
camp itself. Lebala Camp is situated 30 kilometers to the
south of Lagoon Camp and fronts onto the Linyanti Wetlands.
Each secluded tent has its own sundeck, and is set back
among the trees. The endless vistas from the large windows
and decks across the vast plains, make Lebala one of the
