Camp
LION'S PAW CAMP
This luxury retreat offers quick access to the wildlife on the crater floor. Tucked deep inside a magical forest on the misty precipice of an extinct volcano, this is one of the most delightful safari camps you'll find anywhere and is our top lodging pick on the rim of the Crater. This venue is all about location and is one of only two camps located inside the Ngorongoro Crater park gate, a major perk for those safari enthusiasts who want to be the first vehicle in the Crater at dawn!
Lion’s Paw Camp is one of the few camps located within the Ngorongoro Crater park gate. This is ideal for game viewing, enabling you to be the first vehicle within the crater at dawn. Built under a canopy of acacia trees, the camp overlooks the crater floor. The 8 tents each feature en suite bathroom, flush toilet and safari style shower and power strip for charging camera batteries. The main camp area includes an open-air bar, lounge, dining room, camp fire and sundowner meeting place, which offers a prime sunset view over the crater’s rim.
