WOW FACTOR

Machaba Safaris’ Verney’s Camp is in the heart of Hwange National Park in Zimbabwe. Situated on the central side of the southeastern part of Hwange National Park, Verney’s Camp is in a private concession of 10 000 hectares (24,710 acres) which is in a remote part of the park not accessed by other visitors. The camp is located at Verney’s Pan, which is situated on a large open floodplain surrounded by teak forest typical of Hwange National Park. The waterhole at Verney’s plays host to numerous animals and is a playground for the famous elephant herds of Hwange.

WALKING SAFARIS

Walking safaris are also conducted generally in the morning with armed guides. The walks are leisurely and time is taken to observe the smaller things in the bush that one normally misses when driving. Walking is weather dependent, or dependent on the condition of the terrain. Not available to children under 12.
