Hwange National Park is Zimbabwe’s biggest reserve, covering 14,651 square kilometres of Kalahari sand and mopane woodland in the northwest of the country. It borders Botswana’s Chobe National Park, forming part of the world’s largest transfrontier conservation area.
Hwange is famous for its enormous elephant population — estimated at over 40,000, one of the largest in the world. The park also supports all Big Five species along with over 100 mammal species and 400 bird species. During the dry season, the park’s pumped waterholes become focal points for spectacular wildlife concentrations.
Visitors can enjoy game drives, guided walking safaris, and night drives. The park offers a range of concessions from luxury lodges to self-drive camping, making it accessible to all budgets.
