Wilderness Shumba Impact

Africa | Zambia | Kafue National Park


For seven months each year, life around Shumba remains a glorious, wild mystery. Then, the waters recede, and the wilderness becomes a safari wonderland. It’s this extraordinary privilege, not profit, that keeps us here. And helps us continue to protect our wild areas through supporting anti-poaching efforts and creating employment.

Wilderness Shumba Camp

Shumba Camp is located in the centre of the Busanga Plains, home to hundreds of red lechwe, pukus and the oribi. With these antelopes, Lichtenstein’s hartebeest, herds of wildebeest, zebras, buffalos and lions take advantage of permanent floodplains near the Camp: these species can be perfectly observed from the comfort of your tent or the main deck. Shumba Camp comprises 6 spacious en-suite luxury safari tents on raised platforms with large ambiences and both indoor and outdoor showers. The dining and bar area is elevated and overlooks the landscape; dinner takes place in the intimate “boma”, where guests can also enjoy elements of local Zambian culture. Many meals are cooked on the fire in front of the guests, enhancing the safari experience. A maximum of 12 people can be accommodated at any one time to assure the best experience.
