African Bush CampsKanga Bush Camp has six tents set in the heart of Mana Pools National Park. The main area of the camp is on decking overlooking the pan. A relaxing lounge area under the shade of large trees overlooks the splash pool and pan. There is the choice of taking game drives in open-topped four-wheel drive vehicles or walking with professional guides. The opportunity to leave one's vehicle and track game on foot is an experience rare in the national parks of Africa and in Mana Pools in particular this provides the visitor with the chance to track game in safety with an experienced professional guide. Other activities include night drives as well as canoeing which is organised on request. Game abounds on the flood plains and in the Mopane woodlands of Mana Pools. Kanga Pan particularly attracts great game in big concentrations as it is the only water found in the floodplain above the river. The predators, including lion, wild dog and leopard are often sighted and large concentrations of buffalo can be found in the Mopane woodland and open plains studded with Ilala Palms. Kudu, zebra, impala and waterbuck can be seen on the surrounding plains. Elephant take advantage of the plentiful "albida" trees in the area. Bird watching is also a great attraction of the area.

RIFA Conservation Education CampRifa Camp was established and has been managed for 21 years by the Zimbabwe Hunters' Association. These citizen hunters wanted to expose schools to the wonders of a wilderness area they hunted in and became attached to. The camp and its programme is open to all Zimbabweans. Priority is given to school groups who have programmes tailor-made to their needs. The schedule also includes core topics such as study management of big game and the hunting of one impala per camp for anatomy studies, food for the school and scraps for the vulture feast. The course topics and backing resource materials have been developed by Mrs. L. Maasdorp, Education Co-ordinator. The product offered attracts schools to come year after year. In this big game safari area an armed escort consisting of a member of the Zimbabwe Hunters' Association, the Education Officer and the Parks Ranger protect the pupils on walks. The week's camp is designed for 30 pupils, three to four teachers, a cook and driver. More under-privileged schools need financial support for attending a camp. Can anyone help here?
