The lodge provides a unique opportunity to immerse oneself in this pristine wilderness. Guests can witness the natural beauty of Gonarezhou, from its lush landscapes to its vibrant wildlife. Whether it's encountering elephants, exploring diverse ecosystems, or simply taking in the tranquility of the surroundings, Chilo Gorge Safari Lodge offers an unforgettable experience in the heart of this unspoiled African wilderness.
There are ten ten king-size or twin chalets located at the main camp, each overlooking the river gorge from a private balcony. Comfortably furnished and decorated in the local Shangaan style, with an elevated bathroom with en-suite showers behind the sunken bedroom.
Immerse yourself in the intense wildlife experience of both Hwange National Park and Mana Pools, two wildlife rich gems, home to high numbers of elephants, lions and the elusive African painted dog.
