The Umbabala Camp

The Ume River is a tributary to the Zambezi River. The creation of Lake Kariba resulted in the Ume becoming a broad and interesting place. The river mouth plays host to the well known Bumi Hotel on one shore, with the Tashinga Camp, belonging to the National Parks and Wildlife Department of Zimbabwe on the other shore. Along the river near Tashinga are the Ume and Umbabala camps.
