Our Story

A highlight was to be ready for the full solar eclipse of 4th December 2002 where many travelers from around the world gathered to our area to view the solar eclipse, which lasted over 5 minutes.  

As the moon blocked out the sun an eerie silence came about the bushveld, no bird or animal was to be heard. Was this a sign, a sign of good things to come?

I personally think it was, as Chinaka grew from a little unknown lodge to one of the best known lodges in the area.
