Magashi Tented Camp

Magashi Camp is situated in the productive and phenomenally diverse north-eastern corner of Akagera National Park, overlooking beautiful Lake Rwanyakazinga. Akagera comprises some of the most scenic savannah in East Africa – open plains, woodlands, lakes, swamp, and grassy low mountains – and is home to one of Africa’s highest hippo densities, some very large crocodiles as well as the rare sitatunga and more than 520 bird species.

Teeming with plains game, Akagera now also boasts a healthy lion population, which were reintroduced into the park in 2015 after a 20-year absence, as well as the black rhino which was reintroduced in 2017. Magashi – the only exclusive-use area in Akagera – also harbors a good density of leopard. 

Six spacious and airy tents offer uninterrupted views over Lake Rwanyakazinga, while Magashi’s main area is comprised of a luxurious lounge, dining and bar area, pool, and expansive viewing deck with a convivial fire pit. The architecture and interiors pay homage to traditional Rwandan culture.
