The Property
Wilderness Magashi Peninsula is an ultra-exclusive, ten-bed safari camp set in the pristine northeastern wilderness of Akagera National Park, Rwanda. Perched on a private peninsula jutting into the tranquil waters of Lake Rwanyakazinga, this extraordinary retreat redefines East African luxury safari travel by combining sustainable conservation, authentic Rwandan craftsmanship, and intimate encounters with Rwanda's only Big Five wildlife ecosystem.
Elevated on wooden boardwalks to afford sweeping vistas of Lake Rwanyakazinga, accommodations consist of just two spacious double suites and a sole-use four-bed private villa positioned 200 metres apart for absolute seclusion. Each suite features custom star beds designed for sleeping directly beneath the African night sky, while the camp's panoramic star deck, infinity plunge pools, and open-air boma provide front-row seats to hippos, elephants, lions, leopards, and crocodiles moving freely along the peninsula's shores.
