Overview of Jabali Ridge

A sophisticated retreat with spectacular views, Jabali Ridge makes a good claim as one of the most luxurious lodges in the Ruaha National Park. Set on the banks of the Mwagusi River in the northern area of the park, Jabali Ridge is well-placed to explore one of the least visited but most exciting conservation areas in Tanzania – Ruaha is known for its concentrations of elephants and buffalo as well as predators such as lion and leopard.

Jabali Ridge features luxury suites including a family house (children from 5 years are welcome) and an infinity swimming pool, spa and Wi-Fi access. It is a modern lodge with large living and socializing areas as well as pleasing artwork and decor details.

Morning and afternoon game drives in open-sided 4X4s led by professional guides take you into the heart of the wildlife action, searching the dry riverbeds and open plains for predators and their prey. You will have the opportunity to go on spot-lit night drives, too, and can also lace up your boots and enjoy a nature walk with your guide and a park ranger.

 

Make a Positive Impact Through Travel

Asilia empowers crucial wilderness areas in East Africa, benefitting people and nature alike. By making bold, and often pioneering, investments into areas that are ecologically and economically vulnerable, Asilia aims to turn these areas into viable conservation economies, benefitting both the local communities as well as the environment. With the help of guests, who contribute a levy of US$ 5 for each night that they stay at an Asilia property, Asilia is able to make a significant positive impact towards their goal of empowering these areas, including the communities and wildlife that call them home.

    Dining

    All meals are part of the tariff at Jabali Ridge as are your drinks except cellar wines, premium spirits and champagne. In the dining area, breakfasts and light lunches can be enjoyed, and in the evening, there is a delectable, gourmet three-course supper menu under the stars. Meals are served at the main camp but individual tables are available on request as are bush picnics – your chance to enjoy a traditional meal away from camp or a packed lunch for a full-day game drive in Ruaha.

    Your day begins with an early wake-up call served with tea, coffee and biscuits. You can have breakfast before you leave for your morning drive or wait until you return to camp at midmorning. There will be lunch as well as afternoon tea to look forward to, and the day ends with sunset drinks on your game drive followed by drinks and dinner back at camp, served inside or under the stars.
