Chimwala Bush Camp

Chimwala Bush Camp at Liwonde National Park is an excellent opportunity to experience the beauty of Malawi’s Wildlife in a small and safe place.

The Camp is located in the South of the National Park at the base of Chinguni Hill overlooking the Chikalongwe lagoon and floodplain.

The camp is operated by African Parks and also used by Kiboko Safaris for their Liwonde National Park safari operations in cooperation with African Parks.

Tucked up against Chinguni hill, and sheltered by a mixture of mopane and miombo trees, the camp is constructed from local rock & thatch. The main area’s al fresco style brings the outside in, with high ceilings and a large garden for dining and leisure. The tents – while classic in style – have some modern features: oversized windows, lovely décor, private verandahs and open-air outdoor bathrooms. Enjoy a laze around the pool with its magnificent views across the floodplain. This is truly a treasure of a bush camp.

At the camp up to eight guests can be accommodated in comfortable and 4 spacious en-suite safari tents on a self catering basis. Within the camp compound there is an expansive thatched dining and lounge area for guests to socialise and relax and further a pool which is fed by borehole water.  The dining area also has a moderately stocked bar.

Liwonde National Park contains impressive elephant and hippo populations and multitudes of rare and colourful birds. Recently, cheetahs, lions and wild dogs have been reintroduced into the park and the number of black rhinos has increased due to translocations.

Guests can spend an unforgettable time and have a great safari experience.

Naturally, the health and well-being of all our guests and staff members has highest priority to us. We are constantly monitoring the situation and are strictly following all precautionary measures to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
