Wy we Love Chikwenya

Chikwenya is set in an exclusive wilderness area on Mana Pool’s eastern boundary, where the Sapi River meets the mighty Zambezi. Mana Pools is a well-deserved UNESCO World Heritage site, bristling with iconic African wildlife in an extraordinarily beautiful riverine setting. Thrilling walking safaris, and untamed adventures on game drives and by boat. Superb birdlife in a sublimely wild, ultra-photogenic setting.

Emporium-Safari Chikwenya epitomises a true bush camp experience, with the personal service, intimacy and warmth our tented camps are renowned for. Elegant and spacious tents rest in the shade of a grove of towering indigenous trees, inviting elephants, stately eland, and an array of birds to the camp. Decorated in light tones of cream and beige, Chikwenya exudes serenity.

Highlights

Exquisitely peaceful, Chikwenya’s seven elegant tented suites (including two family units with private pools) rest in a grove of shady indigenous trees, inviting elephants, stately eland, and an array of birds to the camp. In light tones of cream and beige, Chikwenya exudes tranquillity, an elegant space blending into the pristine wilderness.

Benefits

Purpose: As a private-access area neighbouring Mana Pools National Park, Chikwenya plays an important role in protecting what is considered to be one of the great wildlife spectacles on the continent, and in preserving a feel of real wilderness – a function that is recognised in the national park’s World Heritage Site status. NOTE: Wilderness Chikwenya is open seasonally between April and mid-November.
