| HWANGE NATIONAL PARK, ZIMBABWE
Hwange National Park covers just over 14 600 square kilometres and with such a diverse range and abundance of big game and birdlife, Hwange lives up to its name as being one of the finest in Africa. Witness huge herds of elephant at the waterholes at dusk and search for the big cats hunting on this incredible Hwange safari.
Although game viewing is generally restricted to the Hwange National Park road network, there are private concession areas allowing off-road safaris and nature walks. Hwange Park is one of the finest conservation areas in Africa and is said to contain the widest variety and greatest density of wildlife in the world.
All Zimbabwe's protected animals are to be found in Hwange and it is the only protected area where gemsbok and brown hyena occur in reasonable numbers. The population of wild dog to be found in Hwange is thought to be of one of the largest surviving groups in Africa today.
