Stay at Mpala Jena

Mpala Jena is a beautiful, exclusive canvas tented camp, located on a private concession in the Zambezi National Park. The camp overlooks a stunning stretch of the Zambezi River shoreline. The camp is named after the natural spring-line, Mpala Jena, which runs through the centre of the concession and attracts an abundance of wildlife throughout the year. The area is particularly famous for buffalo and elephant sightings as well as having fantastic birdlife.

Mpala Jena is an environmentally innovative camp, constructed only of recycled hardwoods, canvas and powered by its solar farm. The four guest tents have fabulous views of the river and the interiors are Moroccan in style. Each tent has a lounge and en-suite bathroom with a bath and shower. The decking in front of each tent leads to a private plunge pool.

Jen & George

We were bundled into a vehicle and dashed off to see a leopard within the first 30 minutes of arriving; it was an AWESOME start. Our guide completely made the entire experience. He was an exceptional birder and his best party trick was to point out the bird and then tell us the exact page we could find it in our book. We combined Zimbabwe with Mozambique, and our beach hotel felt like a complete hidden gem. The sand is like ‘moon dust’ and the hospitality and food were fantastic.
