Lodge

Camelthorn Lodge, Zimbabwe

Remote forest lodge near Zimbabwe's well-known Hwange National Park.

Tucked into a camel thorn tree forest on the extreme south-eastern edge of Hwange National Park, Camelthorn Lodge is a ten minute drive to the park's gate, very near the game-rich region of Ngamo Plains.

Thus, the dry season (between April and November) is the most ideal time to visit. The sturdy lodge is solar powered and offers a comfortable base from which to explore this corner of Zimbabwe. Railway buffs and game-viewing enthusiasts alike will delight in the Elephant Express, a purpose-built rail car that runs between Hwange Town and the nearby Ngamo Siding.
