Located in the centre of the Katavi National Park, Katuma Bush Lodge is set on an elevated point overlooking the vast plains of Katisunga. The lodge has been designed to blend in with its surroundings to avoid distracting from the beauty of Katavi and the herds of animals that can be seen right from your tent. The open-sided thatched boma overlooks the Katavi plains and the evening fire-pit.
Game viewing is exceptionally rewarding at Katavi due to the sheer abundance of wildlife. Game viewing in our 4 X 4 vehicles centres around the woodland areas along the seasonal lakes, where most of the game can be found,including the big cats. We also offer walking safaris, and for those that want to get even closer to nature, fly camping – sleeping in the bush with just a mosquito net between you and the stars.

KATUMA BUSH LODGE>Katavi National Park
Remote and wild, Katavi National Park is the third largest national park in the country, yet one of the least visited,
which means you can look forward to having this huge wilderness to yourself.
Katavi boasts Tanzania’s largest population of crocodiles and hippos, while lion and leopard find prey among the huge
populations of herbivores – impala, eland, topi, zebra, and herds of buffalo up to 1,600 strong. The rare, honey-coloured
puku antelope is one of the park’s richest wildlife viewing rewards.
The park’s main geographical features are the watery grass plains to the north, the palm-fringed Lake Chada to the
south-east, and the Katuma River. These areas are particularly full of wildlife. Kaleidoscopes of birds can be seen fleeting across the riverbanks and swamps, whilst flotillas of pelican cruise the lakes and elephant graze waist-deep in the marshlands.
