Khulu Bush Camp

Choose elegant Khulu Bush Camp bordering the compelling wilderness of Hwange National Park, in the Sikumi Forest Reserve, where you get full access to both this private Zimbabwe concession and the national park. Find all you need to know to plan your Zimbabwe holiday to Khulu with the safari experts here.

Khulu Lodge is smaller than its big sister, Khulu Ivory Lodge, and is named after the well-loved director of the Amalinda Safari Collection, Cedric Wilde. He loved this camp and would tell his stories around the fire while strumming his guitar. Khulu is an affectionate local word for ‘grandfather’.

Khulu Bush Camp Hwange is the best base to go on safari, camping out in nature on the edge of a large floodplain or wetland where wildlife is prolific and the silence is golden. Enjoy traditional colonial-style accommodation and kind, slick hospitality in a camp that is easy to get to by road and airport so the perfect getaway for visitors who are touring Zimbabwe on their dream safari holiday.

Spend your days out game viewing at Khulu Hwange, on walking safaris and birding then return to the comfort of your tented chalet elevated on a wooden deck.

Meet fellow animal trackers in the open-air guest area with waterhole views and a delightfully refreshing swimming pool where a large dining table attracts everyone for dinners under the stars. Take the steps down to the fire pit beside the waterhole and view animals as you sip evening drinks in Hwange.
