About the location
This camp is located in a grove of evergreen ebony trees and overlooks an open pan. This is the result of the Luangwa River changing course over the years. There are no roads to Crocodile Camp (except one which is used only for supplies and emergencies), so guests will all arrive by foot. Do see Parks & Regions on this page.
camp Layout
Crocodile Bush Camp is intimate, with only three reed and thatch chalets. The camp is cosy and small and the dining and activities are done on a shared basis. This creates a pleasant atmosphere in camp with chats around the campfire, safaris on foot and of course, exceptional guiding who have learned from John Coppinger – one of the Luangwa valley’s top walking safari guides. Do see our new Crocodile River Camp Picture Gallery further down this page.
Crocodile River Camp Accomodation
The rooms at Crocodile Camp are taken down each year at the end of October and are rebuilt again at the beginning of June. Because of the temporary nature, the rooms are made from natural reeds and thatch. That said, they are very comfortable, with flushing toilets and running water. Do see Best Safaris & Holidays on this page.
Wildlife & Activities at Crocodile River Camp
Crocodile Camp is part of the Chikoko walking trail, so activities are exclusive to walking only. The bush walks are done in the morning and afternoon – to avoid the midday sun and give guests time to relax and enjoy lunch. An experienced guide and an armed ranger will accompany you on the bush walks, and rather than intense hikes, they are gentle strolls through various landscapes with an attention to animals, flora and fauna.
