Untouched pathways and rugged terrains await
‘Pristine wilderness’ perfectly sums up this vast and rugged national park, situated away from the main tourist routes in south-east Zimbabwe. It’s a huge area that’s set to become one of the finest ‘peace parks’ in the world and is wholeheartedly dedicated to conservation, biodiversity and the development of the nearby local communities. As such, you’re set for a quiet and refreshing experience when you visit.
Three major rivers – The Save, Runde and Mwenezi – cut their wondrous courses through the Park, forming beautiful pools and natural oases from which hundreds of species of birds, wildlife and fish gather to feed and drink before your very eyes. As its name implies, Gonarezhou is also famous for its elephants, and many of the largest-tusked elephants in the region can be found within the Park – providing you with exciting and fulfilling viewing opportunities.
Arguably one of the most prominent and enduring natural features of Gonarezhou National Park is the beautiful Chilojo Cliffs. These magnificent red sandstone cliffs have been formed through eons of erosion and overlook the scenic Runde River valley, providing a unique backdrop to your African Safari. They really add an otherworldly feel to the area and will no doubt leave you awe-inspired and itching to return before you’ve even left.
