Binga Camp

Location:

Bing Camp sits at the meeting of two rivers, the Nhamadze and Musappa Grande, in the foothills of Mt Binga, one of Manica Province’s most important attractions and the highest peak in the country with 2,440 m. This must surely be one of the most beautiful places in Mozambique, a stunning landscape of open forest rolling hills and rugged peaks. Whether you want to climb Binga or wander along the river bank, perhaps enjoying a swim in one of the cool shady pools in the river, Binga Camp makes a perfect getaway.

Activities:

Trekking in the mountains could keep you busy for weeks and if you have particular interests in birds or botany then you’re in for a treat. And don’t be put off if you have young children. The riverside walks and cool pools are accessible to all. In the area we have the Martin Falls, Chikukwa with its rock paintings and waterfall, and just 20km back down the road there is Mahate, a beautiful gorge.

Other activities include, kayaking, climbing, orienteering, horse riding, mountain bikes.

Accommodation:

Binga Camp has 8 prepared campsites each with natural screening for privacy. Each camp site has a picnic table and benches and a work surface, though the Camp is set up for communal cooking (see below). Each tent has easy access to a toilet and shower block. The shower units will provide warm/hot water from a passive solar system. For people wishing to camp who do not have their own equipment, Binga Camp will have tents and other camping equipment for hire.

Binga Camp will also have five fixed ‘safari’ tents offering a superior standard of accommodation. Each tent has twin beds that fit together to make a double, a small writing desk, and a covered veranda. Occupying the best riverside sites at Binga Camp, with views to the mountains, these fixed tents will feel like luxury at a very affordable price. Contacts:
