Mavuradonha Kopje Tops Lodge

The Mavuradonha wilderness area is part of an unspoiled wildlife sanctuary measuring 575 square kilometres. It is located in the Mount Darwin district of Mashonaland Central province. The wilderness area also encompasses the Mavuradonha Mountains which form part of the Zambezi escarpment. The mountain area is rugged terrain that offers beautiful views. It comprises many interesting relief forms, including streams, rivers, valleys, and age-old elephant paths which make great hiking trails.  The area is perfect for photographic safaris and walking safaris.

This location is much cooler than the surrounding areas because of the northeasterly winds and the high altitude. This is the beautiful backdrop of Kopje Tops Camp, a small eco-friendly self-catering camp that has 5 thatched lodges that can accommodate 10 guests in all.
