Bupenyu translates to the state of being alive. With appreciation for our surroundings, abounding in various life forms, we desire to conserve the ecosystem and preserve the natural splendour that is characteristic of this region.
Leveraging solar energy — We have installed over 700 solar PV panels that generate renewable energy for use at the lodge.
Using sustainably sourced potable water — We use water from our well points and water storage to water our gardens, thereby reducing our demand on this valuable resource.
Growing indigenous produce in our onsite garden — We cultivate our own produce, including fresh fruits, vegetables and herbs. This enables us to use seasonal ingredients and to foster a culture of sustainability among our staff and guests.
Supporting surrounding communities
We also have a heart for helping nearby communities to improve their livelihoods. We do so in the following ways:
Empowering local workers — At Bupenyu Lodge, we are committed to creating meaningful opportunities for the local community. The majority of our team is proudly made up of skilled individuals from the Victoria Falls area, ensuring authentic hospitality while supporting sustainable livelihoods. Through training, employment, and development initiatives, we invest in the people who make this place truly special.
