Hippo Lodge is situated along the banks of the Kafue River. It's a perfect destination for nature lovers, bird watchers and anglers alike.
Days can be spent game-viewing on foot, by vehicle or boat. Guest can fish the Kafue hot spots, tick away at that bird list, or unwind with a sundowner in their beautiful natural hot spring., devouring delicious bush meals on idyllic islands in the Kafue River, taking an insightful trip back in time with a tour of a derelict copper mine, or catching that intensely beautiful sunset.
Hippo Lodge is set in a remote wilderness, teeming with seasonal wildlife. The Zambian Ornithological Society has categorised Hippo Lodge as one of best birding sites in Zambia – a real bird watcher’s paradise.
Hippo is a small, vintage-style stone-built camp with four uniquely built private chalets and two rustic safari tents each with open-air stone bathrooms. A natural hot spring, situated about one km from the lodge, provides guests with a perfect opportunity to unwind and rejuvenate in a unique sand bottomed Jacuzzi – bathing at the spring is one of Hippo Lodge's most popular activities.
