Rhino Post Lodge offers 8 spaciously
appointed suites, raised on stilts above the
Mutlumuvi Riverbed. Each unit has an overhead
fan, modern en-suite bathroom, and private
viewing deck with reed-enclosed outdoor shower.
Typically, a rhino walking trail would
include a combination of some game drives and
mostly bush
walks. It is best to spend a couple of nights
at Rhino Post Lodge and a couple of nights at
Plains Camp. There is no fixed itinerary and no
fixed departure dates, so we can design a 3-day,
4-day or 5-day
walking safari according to your requirements.

Plains Camp is a beautiful tented camp
situated on an open plain, overlooking an active
waterhole. Walking trails may start or end at
Plains Camp, and the accommodation here consists
of 4 comfortable safari-style canvas tents on
wooden platforms, each with running hot water,
overhead fans and comfortable beds.
The common area includes a friendly lounge
and dining area, outside fireplace and small
plunge pool. The generator system can be used to
recharge camera batteries at specific times.

The Sleepout Platforms offer guests a
unique bush experience, out in the open (weather
permitting). Guests will arrive on foot in the
early evening, with a lightweight rucksack
containing a change of clothes, pillowcase and
sheet inner for the sleeping bag provided. After
hanging up a mosquito net and flysheet
(optional), sundowners can be enjoyed on the
platforms overlooking a waterhole. There is no
better way to enjoy the sounds of the bush at
night! The camp has 2 bathrooms with hot
showers. Maximum 8 guests and 2 armed rangers.
|
|
The daily activities will either be game
drives or walking trails, as planned in advance.
In general, game drives are mostly conducted
from Rhino Post Lodge, while walking trails are
conducted from Plains Camp as well as Rhino
Post. The whole group in camp will participate
in the chosen activity, as only one activity can
be conducted at a time. All meals are included
in the rate.
