The best campsites Zimbabwe

The main camp in the northern part of Gonarezhou Park is Chipinda Pools, which also operates as an administrative centre for this part of the park. Located near the entrance gate, it has campsites (with health, shelter and braaïs) as well as a few rondavels. It is located in a very pleasant setting, not far from beautiful green pools where big hippos they. More downstream, still on the edge of the Runde River, lies the Chinguli camp, also with showers, toilets and rondavels. Between these two camps (towards the Chilojo cliffs and the confluence of the Runde and Sava), other much more sommaires campsites are implanted along the Runde: Chivilila and Massasanya (near Chipinda Pools), Fishans, Chilojo, Nyahungwe, Madumbini, Bopomela and Lisoda (facing the cliffs), Gota, Chitove and Chamulubati (at the confluence of the Save and Runde rivers). Without any development, each of them can accommodate only 12 people.

Matusadona National Park has three private camps, each accommodating 12 people. They are reserved for groups or families that know each other. The Emu and Mbalabala camps are located next to Tashinga, 55 km by boat from Kariba. Muuyu is established a little more in the northeast, in an area occupied by itself. Each camp consists of two family bungalows with 2 rooms with 3 beds each; they shall be fully equipped: bathroom, toilet, dining room, kitchen with crockery, hob, refrigerator; linen is also provided.

A great place to plant its tent or park its camping-because, with a few small, very basic rooms, only with a time-spent mattress and a lack of hygiene, this is the Caravan Park. For the shower and toilets, there is a block that lacks maintenance, with valves always spitting water at room temperature. Security is not assured, this place will serve as a break for campers, travelling preferably in group, with just one backpack that they always keep close to them to try no one. In the kitchen corner you can enjoy delicious local dishes and drinks are available at the Gweru Sports Club, the adjacent bar.

Here, there are no chalets or lodges, there is just a space to piquer its tent and admire the lake. The sites focus on water activities: mini-cruises, the children's pool and the braai, these famous barbecues inviting you to relax in a meal with family or friends; to facilitate things, meat and drinks are sold on site. The on-site bar restaurant deals with customer orders.
