Magashi Camp boasts a spectacular setting overlooking the scenic Lake Rwanyakazinga in the only exclusive-use area of Rwanda’s triumphant Akagera National Park.
Experience
Lake Rwanyakazinga is home to one of Africa’s highest densities of hippo & thanks to successful wildlife restoration operations & strict anti-poaching laws, Akagera has become the biggest protected wetland in Central Africa.
Once again home to the Big 5, Akagera is also one of the best birding areas in the world, with 500 recorded species, including the perplexing stork-like shoebill (also known as whale head).

The tents are connected to the main area by elevated wooden walkways. The main area comprises a luxurious lounge, dining area, bar & pool as well as an expansive viewing deck with a fire pit.
