Adventure walking safari

A truly authentic walking safari in the land where legends speak of elephants taller than trees, ivory poachers and ancient remains of the slave trade.

Wild and remote, Gonarezhou National Park in south west Zimbabwe, this is an active adventure getting you closer to nature.
Rugged landscapes, blue skies; Gonarezhou is the place of many elephants, as well as 36 other mammal species with regular sightings of lion, leopard, African painted dog.

Chilo Gorge Gonarezhous

Gonarezhou National Park 

aptly named as the “place of many elephants”, the park is truly one of the most in Zimbabwe.  Rugged sandstone cliffs beautiful act as sentinels to this 5000 square kilometre reserve.

In addition to a burgeoning elephant population, the park has good numbers of the majority of larger mammal species and we have personally recorded 36 different mammals including charismatic species such as lion, leopard and painted hunting dogs.

There are few truly wild places in Africa that remain unspoiled by mass tourism and for the time being, Gonarezhou is one of them.

Located far from the heavily tramped northern circuiGonarezhou is an absolute jewel of a wilderness area.
