Highlights
What We Love
- Time at one of the camp’s three waterholes
- The bright flashes of traditional chitenge cloth
- Just four rooms shaded by mahogany trees
When To Visit
Peak Season: May to December
the rains slowly subside, making South Luangwa burst into life and providing great grazing for plains game
Green Season: January to April
Bilimungwe is closed
Overview
The mature mahogany trees at Bilimungwe are so big that they provide full shade for the four rooms found at this small but perfectly appointed bush camp. Blending into the natural environment means the camp supports a plethora of birdlife and its three waterholes have been known to be the private wallowing grounds of resident hippo.
The whole camp is built of local timber by skilled artisans and the warm wood is punctuated by vivid pops of colour provided by traditional chitenge cloth cushions. Ideal for couples or small groups, Bilimungwe’s excellent guides will take you on walks and game drives to find South Luangwa National Park’s most intriguing sightings like a herd of puku antelope or a pair of Lilian’s lovebirds…
