Verney's Camp

Verney's Camp is nestled in a remote, private concession within Zimbabwe's Hwange National Park, offering an exclusive safari experience away from regular park visitors. The camp is situated on a vast open floodplain, bordered by mopane and teak forests, where Machaba Safaris' eco-luxury tented accommodations are discreetly placed. These designer canvas tents masterfully blend modern comforts, such as running hot and cold water, flush toilets, and electricity, with the authentic spirit of traditional safaris, ensuring guests enjoy the best of both worlds amidst untamed wildlife. The camp provides an unparalleled opportunity to witness a spectacular variety and abundance of wild animals. Guests can observe massive herds of buffalo and elephant, as well as large concentrations of plains game, including the protected Roan antelope, as they gather to drink from Verney's Pan. This high density of prey animals attracts a diverse array of predators, notably leopards, lions, and packs of African wild dogs, offering thrilling game viewing opportunities right from the camp or during exhilarating game drives. Verney's Camp is family-friendly, catering to all ages, and is committed to sustainable tourism. Machaba Safaris maintains a balance between maximizing guest comfort and minimizing environmental impact through the use of solar energy, low-energy appliances, and a conscious decision to forgo certain amenities like hairdryers and air conditioning. The camp's design, which avoids permanent fixtures, allows for rehabilitation within 1.5 years, further underscoring its eco-conscious approach.
