About the location
Mfuwe Lodge sits inside South Luangwa National Park in an area with prolific game, and its location close to the main gate makes it very convenient. The lodge overlooks a lagoon which attracts resident animals throughout the year. They have a few resident hippos and during our trip, we saw an elephant balance up on its hind legs to feed from the tall tree.

lodge Layout
Mfuwe Lodge has a thatched mess area which is home to the iconic photographs of the elephant walk right through it! The main area is open plan: the lounge areas, curio shop, restaurant, pool and verandas are all in the same space. The library is further aside but offers indoor and outdoor seating and a connection of WiFi which most camps in the South Luangwa do not have.
The main open deck is spacious and with a mixture of outdoor seating, tables, sofas and deck chairs, there are plenty of special places to sit and enjoy the resident wildlife.

The chalets all feature well-appointed en-suite bathrooms with panoramic walk-in showers, comfortable beds, and sheltered private verandas for guests to sit back and watch the wildlife in the lagoons from the hanging “egg chairs”.
