Lion's Paw Camp
Ngorongoro Crater, Tanzania · Ngorongoro Conservation Area, Tanzania
About This Property
The Experience
Ngorongoro Lion's Paw is a permanent tented camp run by Karibu Camps & Lodges, set in a grove of red thorn acacias on the eastern rim of the Ngorongoro Crater. The tents stand on wooden platforms under fixed roofs, with four-poster beds, hot showers and heated bedding for cold highland nights. Meals are served in a wood-and-glass dining room or on its terrace, and buffalo often graze near the tents. The crater floor is a short drive away, which makes early game drives easy. The camp is open all year and offers double rooms, family rooms and a honeymoon suite.
