Experience camp-to-camp walking
Only accessible by foot, Chikoko is a walking safari paradise
Chikoko Tree Camp is located in the northern region of South Luangwa National Park, around 8km upstream from the parent camp, Tafika. The camp overlooks the seasonal Chikoko River - a particularly beautiful, winding channel lined by shady ebony trees. Together with Crocodile River Camp, these lodges form the Chikoko trails.
Accommodation is set in three, rustic, two-storey reed chalets with a total occupancy of just six people when full. These unique chalets have an extraordinary view of the wildlife as they go about their daily activities right in front of the camp.
Chikoko Tree Camp is focused purely on walking safaris and is in an area with no roads at all. Your luggage will be carried for you by porters to and from camp. You can easily walk between Tafika and Chikoko, or Chicoko and Crocodile, in a three to four-hour walk; during the dry season the river is either shallow enough to walk across, or you'll be ferried in a small boat!

Our Difference
The Far & Wild Community...
We think that the best people to talk about an experience are those directly linked to it. Our website and brochures let the ‘real experts’ show their stuff… local experts, travellers & industry insiders. Look out for the coloured markers all around the site... they mean that you are reading something contributed directly by a person from one of these different parts of the community we are part of.
The best memories aren’t simply places and hotels, they are made up of experiences and people… so we connect with local communities, and strive for sustainable travel to make your holiday special
