Hwange National Park

Somalisa Camp is set in a stunning location in the heart of the famous Hwange National Park, tucked away on an acacia island along the edge of an ancient seasonal flood plain, providing breathtaking views of the open savannah plains. Somalisa is a place where tranquillity meets adventure, providing a safari experience that will exceed expectations.
Wildlife sightings here include kudu, sable antelope, zebra, wildebeest, gemsbok, the rare and endangered roan antelope, buffalo, giraffe, lion, leopard, hyena, and large populations of elephant for which the Park is famous for. Hwange is also known to have one of the highest diversities of bird species in Southern Africa, with up to over 470 being recorded.
The camp offers a range of game viewing activities from walking safaris to day and night game drives, all of which are lead by qualified and passionate guides who will share their knowledge and love of the bush with you.
The camp consists of 7 elegantly furnished Sail Tents with beautiful en-suite bathrooms which feature indoor and outdoor showers as well as copper slipper-style bathtubs.
The main area includes a separate lounge and dining area, as well as a viewing deck and a small splash pool guests can relax whilst soaking in the African bush. This overlooks both the 'Elephant Pool' and a natural waterhole where herds of game come to drink.
