Hwange National Park is Zimbabwe’s largest game park with an area of 14,600km². Its sheer size means that its scenery, vegetation and game vary hugely, ranging from the semi desert scrub on the edge of the Kalahari in the south, to forests, granite hills and valleys of Mopane woodlands in the north.

The national park is home to over 100 mammal species, including lion, leopard and rhino, and is known for its large population of elephant. The highest numbers of animals are spotted in the dry season (August to October) when the wildlife congregates around the shrunken water holes.

After the tour, the evening is at your leisure as you enjoy dinner around the fire under the African sky.
