Zimbabwe offers a variety and diversity of attractions.

Hwange National Park is one of Africa's finest havens for

wildlife and is home to vast herds of elephant, buffalo,

zebra and has a very large concentration of giraffe. It is

also home to many predators and endangered species plus

very large and varied bird life.

The park is situated on the main road between

Bulawayo and the world famous Victoria Falls. Hwange

National Park covers just over 14 600 square kilometers.

The Park carries 105 mammal species, including 19 large

herbivores and eight large carnivores. Elephant make up

the largest proportion of the biomass.

All Zimbabwe's specially 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 landscape includes desert sand

to sparse woodland as well as

grasslands and granite outcrops. Due

to the lack of water, man-made

waterholes were introduced to sustain

the animals through the dry season.

The park has an interesting variety of

landscapes with one part running

alongside the North-eastern end of the

Kalahari desert. The south is sandy with

extensive forests and open grassland.

A feature of the area is ancient fossil

dunes - ancient sand dunes held

together by vegetation. Walking, driving

and horseback safaris are a popular

way of seeing the wildlife.

Accommodation is provided at a

number of game Lodges. To travel

through Hwange National Park today is

to see what much of the interior of

Africa might have been like more then

150 years ago.
