Reading time: 2 minutes

Imagine rolling out your yoga mat with far-reaching views of the African savannah; nothing to do but breathe and be, as you immerse yourself in the majestic beauty of the open plains.

Situated near Chobe National Park, Munga Plains offers a remote escape from the day-to- day, surrounded by the stunning beauty of the African wilderness. A private camp with its own fully-equipped shala, it hosts one yoga group at a time, giving you the chance to bond and connect with likeminded others in a setting like no other. This is not just a safari lodge, but a true retreat centre designed to enhance your practice and connection with nature.

It’s also perhaps the nearest you can get to some guaranteed life[1]changing experiences. Yoga, nature, the wilderness, seeing wildlife up close, nutritious food, plus friendly and welcoming people create an environment for magic to happen. Victoria Falls is the closest international airport, with Munga Plains about two hours’ drive away, and there are optional retreat extensions including safari and the legendary, jaw-dropping falls itself.

Munga Plains is also big on sustainability. Every structure was crafted by local artisans using locally-sourced materials, blending seamlessly with the natural surroundings and supporting the local economy. The rustic charm of the camp allows guests to feel truly immersed in nature, to the calls of hyenas and other wildlife at night.

Here’s what one recent guest had to say about their time: “If you're looking for a captivating and enchanting experience that combines the tranquility of yoga with the excitement of a safari adventure, this retreat is for you!”
