WILDERNESS SAFARIS

Matusadona Water Wilderness (5 )
Matusadona National Park (Zimbabwe)

Location:

Matusadona National Park is a wonderful park situated along the southern shores of Lake Kariba. Guests visiting this area have the best of the Lake Kariba coupled with a great wildlife experience in the park.

Matusadona Water Lodge is a small safari camp just off the shoreline of Matusadona National Park. The area is one of the few where Black Rhino can regularly be seen in Zimbabwe's parks.

Accommodation:

Water Wilderness is divided into two identical lodges: one is an eight bedder and the other is a ten bedder.

Both camps still run independently so guests have that small camp atmosphere. The lodges are situated just off the shoreline of Matusadona National Park and consist of floating chalets, moored in two separate and secluded bays. 

Accommodation is in large twin-bedded, floating chalets, each with en suite bathroom with toilet and shower.

Each of the floating rooms has its own cool veranda. The "mother ship" houses a lounge, dining room and upstairs viewing deck.

Guests may commute between this unit and their rooms either by canoe or the camp's motorised pontoon

Facilities:

   

8  & 10 bedded floating chalets with en-suite facilities.
Dining room and pub on the "mother lodge".
Special swimming pool cage.
Airfield at Bumi Hills and Tashinga
Access by air or boat.

Game Viewing / Activities:

Wildlife viewing is excellent in this area, where the fluctuating water levels have created a vast grassland which teems with large hers of antelope, elephant, buffalo and a host of predators. Boating, canoeing, driving and walking with a fully licensed professional guide gives guests a complete wildlife experience. The area is one of the few where Black Rhino can be seen in Zimbabwe's Parks. 

Canoeing along the shoreline is popular and guests often get close to game coming to the waters edge. Boating also gets our guests close to the animals along the shoreline, and gives the keen fishermen their best opportunity of catching Tiger Fish, Africa's best sporting fish. Tracking Black Rhino, Elephant, Buffalo and Lion on foot is one of Africa's most exhilarating experiences!

Getting There

   

Guests fly to Kariba Airport, where they are met and transferred by light aircraft to the Tashinga airstrip (20 minute flight).

Here they are met by a vehicle for a drive to the waters edge and then the final boat transfer (15 minutes) to the camp.
