The Rufiji River is the largest waterway in East Africa and the lifeline of the Selous Game Reserve and its many tributaries and lakes. The river provides a refreshing viewpoint from which to watch the wildlife going about its business. At Steiglers Gorge the river narrows into a deep rocky gorge where leopard are often spotted and the landscape is dramatically different. The shaded rocks and sands along the river banks make perfect picnic spots and somewhere to cast a line for a fearsome tiger fish. This camp's reputation as one of the best game lodges in Africa has been built on the quality of its walking safaris and the standard of the guides. Walking is one of the most exciting and rewarding ways of viewing game transporting you into a world where you are truly part of the bush and not just an observer.

Each of the twelve safari tents is on its own raised timber platform, affording guests an unmatched experience of the African bush. The camp has the prime position at the centre of the unique riverine and lake complex, with the highest concentration of African wildlife and myriad birdlife. There are no fences and no artificial modifications to the natural fauna and so animals wander freely through the camp. Much as guests are encouraged to become as one with the bush surroundings, full consideration has been given to comfort within the camp itself. The spacious tents are luxuriously appointed, with en suite bathrooms and open air hot-water showers. The camp has its own swimming pool, enabling guests to cool off in the heat of the day. Our chefs prepare the finest cuisine from a kitchen well supplied with organic local produce. Meals are complemented by a good selection of wines and there is a well-stocked bar, which only closes once the last guest has retired for the night.

Walking Safaris, boat trips on the Rufiji River, game drives from open vehicles, fishing for Cat, Tiger and Yellow fish and local village visits are available for all guests.
