Hwange Bush Camp

Please note this is merely a guide line, as the guide in camp will dictate the activities, mostly in response to what is happening on the ground at that stage. The wake up call beckons before dawn, with a tea and coffee delivered to your tent. A wonderful way to start the day, joining the dawn chorus of the African bush as it begins to awaken. Maybe the distant roar of a lion, searching for his pride or the eerie whoop of a hyena returning from it's nocturnal wanderings, the harsh 'kwaar' as a francolin descends from the safety of it's nocturnal perch, the gentle cooing of a turtle dove celebrating the dawn. A moment to savor and reflect on the privilege of being part of this tremendous landscape. A continental breakfast served around the fire precedes departure on the days activities. Activities are fluid and consist of a mix between game drives, walks and spending time at water holes. It might start as a drive from camp but rapidly change to a walk as tracks of a buffalo herd or the resident pride of lions are spotted, and need to be further investigated on foot.. The thrill of being on foot tracking lions can only be described first hand. Whatever you see, your guide will be a fountain of information and make the outdoors come alive with his explanations and interpretations of the environment you are in. Lunch in camp will be a culinary delight, followed by a well earned siesta. Afternoon tea with savory and sweet snacks is a fitting way to prepare for the afternoon adventures. An afternoon game drive or walk to Deteema Dam is a great way to spend the last hours of the day. In the dry season, this body of water is the only thirst quenching sustenance for miles around for wildlife. No matter how you get there it is difficult to beat a G & T in hand, watching the procession of wildlife come and go. In camp a three course dinner awaits and then it is time to relax around the campfire, a great place for tales from your guide as well as some insight into the constellations that sparkle above you.
