Hwange National Park's status as the largest game reserve in Zimbabwe — measuring roughly the size of Belgium — makes it difficult to know how best to explore the area on your own. Instead, join a guided tour that takes you to the park's highlights through a series of wildlife safaris, with plenty of opportunities to view animals like elephant herds, lions and hyenas in their natural habitat.
6:00 - Depart your hotel in Victoria Falls and head for the Hwange National Park.
This is a 195km drive and takes about two and half hour of safe driving. The roads to the park are all tarred. You will be at the Main Camp (National Parks HQ and the safari starting point) at around 8:30 and after a few minutes of check in formalities the safari starts.
You will do the full day drive with lunch at any one of the many viewing platforms. Mineral water and refreshments are all provided. Hwange is endowed with many solar powered waterholes and there are no permanent rivers in the park, so most animals can be seen on their way to and from the water holes. The elephants of Hwange are world famous and the Park's elephant population is one of the largest in the world. The park is home to over 85 000 elephants who in the dry season dominate all the water points in the afternoons.
Other animals that can be seen in the park are lion, leopard, cheetah, rhino, buffalo, impala, kudu, sable, eland, waterbuck, zebra, giraffe, baboon, warthog and a lot more. Hwange National Park provides a safari experience to rival the great parks of East Africa - the Serengeti and Masai Mara - but without the crowds.
You will leave for the Park at 16:30 and expect to be back at your hotel at around 19:30.
