The Hide
The Hide is a comfortable and relaxed tented safari camp located on a private concession within Hwange National Park. Superbly situated in one of Hwange’s most outstanding areas, bordering ancient elephant paths and a vast grassland corridor, the Hide has consistently been voted the best safari camp in Zimbabwe. It also features in Patricia Schultz’s book, “1,000 Places To See Before You Die”.
Ten luxury tents under thatch overlook one of the busiest waterholes in Africa. Each tent has a private veranda, from which guests can enjoy outstanding game viewing. En-suite bathrooms have showers and flush toilets. For the more adventurous and romantic, the Dove’s Nest offers complete exclusivity for a night alone in the wild.
The Hide prides itself on its fine cuisine and meals are enjoyed either alfresco beneath a canopy of camel-thorn acacias overlooking the waterhole or around the grand 22-seater teak dining table. The atmosphere is relaxed and friendly.
Of foremost attraction are the two concealed “hides” located on either side of the Hide’s waterhole. These offer a totally secure haven for remarkable close encounters with elephant, buffalo and an array of other wildlife. The spectacle of the great predators and rhino making a sudden appearance is not uncommon. The hides also offer incredible photographic opportunities.
Other activities include walking excursions and day and night game drives with some of Africa’s best guides.
