Description
iOverlander cannot verify if wild camping is permitted at this location. It is your responsibility to verify local laws or obtain consent before staying the night.
Follow signs to Kifi Fisheries from main road just before reaching Mahango national park main gate. Turn left 100m in front of the Kifi Fisheries gate and you reach this lake in 50m. Not sure if this lake is permanent or just in rainy season. Elephants called in and drank before leaving. Lovely experience. We stayed three nights, the elephants visited two nights at sunset, and at 02:30 on third night.
Perfect spot to camp and then visit national park next morning.
No shade and plenty of insects in the evening (as always the case near water).
Completely undisturbed.
Wonderful birdlife around lake.
We really liked this camp spot and hope you do too.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.

Quiet camping spot, only birds and hippo sounds. We weren’t as much impressed by the scenery as the other reviews though.
Report Check-InWe stayed here for 10 days. A very beautiful, quiet area, also not far from the NP.
People are super cute and nice in this region. No one bothered us.
perfect wildcamp. alone, quiet, nobody around. we were wake up at midnight by 3 elephants walking around our rooftop tent ;-) easy to find and beautiful place.
Report Check-InGood spot, finally undisturbed. We drove and parked across the lake because there was a lot of cows and couple of herders at the original spot. Great MTC connection. There are villagers who walked by and said hello but no one bothered us or asked for food or sweets. Plenty of trees across the lake to find some shade. Great bird watching and waking up to a lot of bird song
Report Check-InWhat a wonderful wildspot. Very quiet. We heared hippos and elephants.
Report Check-InNice spot, thanks for sharing! We've been there 3 quiet nights, lots of birds and cows are around. Entrance to the park is very near, perfect spot for overnights.
