About Little Gorges

Soak up endless views at Little Gorges where eagles soar & the wonders of Vic Falls beckon
At eye-level with the falcons that nest in the cliffs of Batoka Gorge, this is no ordinary camp. Near Gorges Lodge, its well-known big sister, Little Gorges comes with spectacular views enjoyed over breakfast or on the many walking trails. Watch as black eagles freefall and soar over the dramatic junction where the Dibu Dibu and mighty Zambezi meet. Just 30 minutes away from the misty (and overwhelming!) Vic Falls, a day of exploring is never done in halves. Think wildlife-spotting by helicopter or sipping sundowners on the Zambezi. After a 'welcome home' of cold towels and cooling drinks, the sunsets are even sweeter.

Property details

The property

Set in a lush and landscaped garden where you can spy wildlife of a smaller variety, Little Gorges is an intimate and secluded camp. Clad in stone and thatch, the communal area comes with a dining room, cosy lounge area and bar. You can also enjoy meals at rustic tables on the patio set along the cliff's edge. Spend time at the pool where sunset drinks are a must and partake in a spa treatment in a private corner of the garden.

The rooms

Each of the five canvas-sided tents are set on a platform of timber and steel with a private veranda (just the place for a morning cuppa). The four-poster or twin beds are draped in a mosquito net and other features include a large vanity, a tea/coffee table and lamps dotted here and there. The en-suite bathrooms have a shower cut into the rocky terrain and double basins. The tents also come with ceiling fans, a well-stocked mini bar and trusty insect repellent.

Activities

Before you take in the always glorious sights of Vic Falls, enjoy Little Gorges' nearby trails. Stroll at the gorge's edge, along the Zambezi 200 meters below and catch the sunset at Peregrine Point. You can even picnic by the water's edge! Step it up a notch with white water rafting or the myriad high wire activities in this neck of the woods. Take a guided wander atop Vic Falls or see this Wonder of the World from a boat cruising the waters at its base.

The birding at Little Gorges is out-of-this-world. Keep your eyes peeled for pairs of Verreaux’s eagles, peregrine falcons, the smaller trumpeting hornbills and many more!
