Rooms
At Chikoko Tree Camp you will find three exclusive chalets built on stilts that blend harmoniously into the treetops. Each chalet offers an elevated view of the surrounding acacia groves, where wildlife roams freely. From your room you can watch elephants, antelope and a variety of birds. These minimalistically designed, comfortable chalets blend seamlessly into nature and give the feeling of living in the middle of the wilderness - an experience that is only possible due to the remoteness of this special camp.
Culinary
The cuisine at Chikoko Tree Camp is as refreshing and authentic as the camp itself. Meals are prepared by experienced chefs using fresh, local ingredients and served in the open dining area so that you can enjoy the view of the wilderness. A light breakfast awaits you in the morning before the safari, a hearty lunch at midday and an indulgent dinner under the African stars in the evening. Let yourself be inspired by the flavors of Africa and enjoy the hospitality of the team.
Activities
At Chikoko Tree Camp, the focus is on experiencing nature. The walking safaris are the centerpiece of your stay, led by experienced guides who will show you the small and big wonders of the South Luangwa National Park. Discover the hidden trails, observe wildlife in their natural habitat and learn about the fascinating ecosystems. From majestic elephants to rare bird species, experience the diversity of wildlife up close. In addition, bird watching and relaxing around the campfire in the evening are the perfect way to round off the day.
Location
Chikoko Tree Camp is located in one of the most remote parts of the South Luangwa National Park and can only be reached via a two-hour walk or a short drive from Tafika Camp. This remoteness is what makes the camp so charming: far away from roads and civilization, nestled in a region full of acacia groves and close to an old riverbed. The surroundings offer ideal conditions for game viewing right on your doorstep. The proximity to Tafika Camp also allows you to plan your stay flexibly, with a multi-day hike through the bush camps being an ideal extension to a stay in Tafika.
