Wilderness Chikwenya, situated at the meeting point of the Sapi and Zambezi rivers within a private wilderness area on the eastern boundary of Mana Pools, perfectly represents the UNESCO World Heritage status of the national park. This exclusive location is celebrated for its unspoiled wilderness, stunning landscapes, and abundant wildlife.

Notably famous for its walking safaris, Wilderness Chikwenya also offers other thrilling activities such as day and night game drives, river boating, catch-and-release fishing, and memorable picnics on Chikwenya Island. The camp’s picturesque setting on floodplains leading to the Zambezi River and with views of the Rift Valley mountains offers exceptional wildlife sightings, including elephants, diverse bird species, and plains game often followed by predators. The tranquil and elegant camp comprises seven rooms nestled among shady albida trees and beautiful Natal mahoganies.
