Wilderness Little Ruckomechi camp, Zimbabwe

A boutique tented camp showcasing the wondrous wildlife on the Zambezi river

Wilderness Little Ruckomechi is an intimate, seasonal safari camp for those looking to get close to the wilderness and wildlife of Mana Pools. Set among the iconic albida trees that characterise the region, the camp is built on wooden decks offering four airy and elegant en-suite tents conveying the romance of a bygone explorer era from June to mid late November. The stylish living spaces, including a dining room and lounge as well as a plunge pool, all look out over the great Zambezi River and the Zambian foothills in the distance.

The riverside setting creates the perfect dinner backdrop – enjoy local Zimbabwean ingredients before sipping a sundowner as the deep orange sun sets behind the Zambezi. Wilderness Little Ruckomechi’s location within the private Ruckomechi Concession ensures an exclusive safari experience complete with a diverse range of activities – game drives, boating, canoeing and walks – through which to explore Mana Pools National Park in all its abundance. Beyond the safari, you can discover the 930 species of birds on a birding excursion, experience the thrill of catch-and-release fishing, or lose yourself in the magic of the Milky Way in one of the romantic star beds.
