Namushasha River Campsite is the self-drive camping arm of the Namushasha River Lodge complex on the Kwando River near Kongola, close to Bwabwata National Park. It is a separate, camping-focused product from the main lodge.
Location and Zambezi access
The campsite sits on the Kwando River in the western Zambezi Region, in the wildlife corridor beside Bwabwata National Park, giving campers a genuine bush-and-river setting a short distance from Kongola. It is the camping side of the Namushasha operation, distinct from the lodge, so travellers get the same prime river location at camping prices.
Accommodation and facilities
Pitches are booked per pitch as a basic camp site where you bring your own tent, and each site has its own private ablution, which keeps a self-drive camping trip comfortable. Campers also have access to the main lodge’s restaurant, bar and pool, so it combines a wild riverside setting with lodge-grade facilities on hand when wanted.
Who this property may suit
This campsite suits self-drive travellers and overlanders who want to camp on the Kwando near Bwabwata but still enjoy the main lodge’s restaurant, bar and pool when they want them, blending independence with a fallback of comforts.
