Linkwasha
Camp is divided into two luxury tented camps - one
with seven tents, and the other with three. Linkwasha
is situated in a private concession area within Hwange
National Park. The area includes many diverse habitats,
including Kalahari savannah, acacia woodlands, as
well as palm islands and teak forests.
This
habitat diversity attracts many different animal populations
and over 400 species of birds. The area is known for
its big game, particularly the predators, as well
as large herds of Elephants and Buffalo during the
winter months. Summer months offer a complete contrast,
as many of the plains-game (and their predators) migrate
to this section of the park to enjoy the lush grazing
on the open savannah. Game drives in open 4x4 vehicles,
hides and guided walks form part of the Linkwasha
experience.
The
tented rooms, built under thatch, are large and comfortable.
Each room has en-suite facilities including a shower,
basin, and flush toilet - and an outdoor shower. A
raised walkway links the rooms, the lounge and dining
room. Each room overlooks an expansive plain in front
of camp - so different species of game can be sighted
on the savannah.
