Four reasons to visit Gonarezhou National Park in Zimbabwe

Four reasons to visit Gonarezhou National Park

1. The place of elephants

Gonarezhou, known as the “place of elephants”, plays host to over 10 000 of these gentle giants at one of the highest densities in any conservation area in Africa.

2. The Diversity

More than 920 plant species, 450 bird species, 90+ mammal species- including the big 5- and some of the most ruggedly spectacular landscapes in Southern African are found in the Park.

3. Supporting Local

One of the key focuses of Gonarezhou is to ensure the local community benefits from being neighbours of the Park- thus, 75% of our staff come from the immediate vicinity of the Park. Your visit directly supports us in this endeavour!

4.Transboundary Conservation

The Park forms part of the Great Limpopo Transfrontier Conservation Area- a mosaic of national parks, private conservation areas and community lands, forming a sub-regional network of protected wildlands.
