Zambia: Chundukwa Horse Trails

Chundukwa Horse Trails

HORSE-RIDING FOR IN-HOUSE RESIDENTS AND EXTERNAL GUESTS.

Our riding trails at Chundukwa River Lodge range from an hour to half-day trails and we cater for single riders as well as group excursions - novice to experienced. Our experienced guides will ensure your comfort and share their vast knowledge of our plant and animal kingdom with you!

Kiddy-friendly and introductory rides are available too.

Living remotely on our horse ranch has required a firm ability in animal husbandry and horse care. Doug has schooled horses for Polo and Polo Crosse over the years which has given him an edge of knowing what types of horses will offer experienced riders a satisfying experience. All our horses are gentle natured, forward going, steady and have been carefully introduced to the bush and wildlife. We have a mixture of Quarter Horses, Quarter Horse cross Boerperds, Basotho Horses and Thoroughbred-Crosses.

CHUNDUKWA HORSE TRAILS  

We have a large stable yard with horses for all levels of riders, and options for children.

Nkwichi Lodge Mozambique

NKWICHI LODGE

Nkwichi is situated in a remote corner of Mozambique and set on the shores of Lake Malawi or Lake Niassa, depending on which shore you're standing. Nkwichi Lodge is hidden beneath the trees around an unspoilt stretch of sandy white beach that would leave you questioning the fact that you're on a fresh water lake.

Nkwichi Lodge only has 5 chalets and 1 private house that are spaced apart for complete privacy.  The spacious and superbly crafted Niassa chalet, a  stone-and-thatch chalet with its huge bed hewn out of old tree trunks and upside-down canoes for tables, blends seamlessly into the Niassa bush.

Choose your own private piece of paradise - our two premier chalets (Kakoa & Nkwazi) boast a private cave, a heart shaped outdoor bath, a magical private beach and the utmost privacy.

Nkwichi Lodge maintains its eco-friendly approach
° Running off renewable energy, with its solar power, wind turbine and own composting system.
° Fresh fish sourced from the local fishermen and organic fruit and vegetables come from their own demonstration farm, with all of the kitchen waste used as compost.
° Nothing goes to waste at Nkwichi; villagers still use old tin cans as graters and drink fresh lake water out of recycled wine bottles.
