Greystoke Mahale
About Greystoke Mahale
Greystoke Mahale is an ultra-remote, indulgent camp located on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, in the Mahale Mountains National Park. The camp is famous for its dramatic architecture—large, open-fronted thatched huts set against the lush mountains and the pristine, sandy beaches of the lake. The experience here is focused on the world-class activity of chimpanzee trekking, which involves guided hikes through the dense, primary forest. The environment is breathtaking, with clear blue waters and towering peaks. The camp offers a unique, luxurious yet natural experience, with high-quality dining and an emphasis on the surrounding wilderness. For those looking for the ultimate safari-meets-beach-adventure, with the highlight of mountain gorilla-style trekking, Greystoke is a singular, once-in-a-lifetime destination.
