In western Tanzania on the shore of Lake Tanganyika lies a unique camp, Greystoke Mahale. With a backdrop of the forested slopes of the Mahale mountains and looking out over one of the world's largest freshwater lakes, the camp nestles comfortably in its natural surroundings. With no roads for many miles around adventurous visitors arrive by light aircraft and a 90 minute trip up the lake by dhow.
The camp has just six thatched chalets set in trees with views over the beach and lake. These open fronted bandas have been constructed from old dhows and have an upper deck which is perfect for lazing away an afternoon. For those looking for a more active stay there is a range of activities on the lake and in the forest including kayaking, fishing and forest walks to enjoy the great bird and animal life and swim in pools beneath waterfalls, but the main attraction are the chimpanzees that live in the mountains.
A truly unique lodge in a remote, magical setting that rewards the adventurous traveller. The journey is certainly worth the effort as a mix of activity and relaxation in a beautiful, remote setting await. Spending time with the chimpanzees is an experience that will live with you forever. To trek through the forest and then spend time observing these fascinating primates in their natural surroundings is a privilege.
