Destinations

Wilderness Linkwasha

A contemporary safari lodge in an iconic Zimbabwe landscape.

 

Linkwasha is positioned on the edge of Hwange National Park’s productive Ngamo Plains, an area renowned for some of the best year-round game viewing on Earth. During summer, the plains teem with wildlife, and in winter they gather in abundance at the many Wilderness-supported waterholes throughout the park.

Accommodation

Shaded by leadwood trees, nine elegant tented suites, including one that accommodates families, offer views onto the camp’s waterhole and the busy plains beyond. Neutral tones and bold Ndebele patterns create a striking, authentically African atmosphere.

Cuisine

Delight in a brunch served al fresco, on the deck overlooking the waterhole, with a menu that celebrates local fruits and grains. Follow the quintessentially African smell of food being prepared over glowing coals, with an outdoor braai under the stars when the weather is warm. Share a sundowner with an elephant overlooking the waterhole, then retire to the library for a warm fireside dinner.

Purpose

Impact across generations

On safari with Wilderness, your curiosity will be piqued. You may wonder why elephants flap their ears, or how migratory birds know where to go. The children from local communities wonder too, and we stimulate that curiosity by teaching them about conservation and sustainable tourism through our non-profit Children in the Wilderness’ initiatives.
