Where this fits in your trip

Multi-day itineraries link Victoria Falls with Hwange, Chobe and sometimes further afield, and the driving between them is a real part of the day. Hwange is Zimbabwe’s largest national park, roughly two hours south of Victoria Falls by road, and is best known for very large elephant herds that gather at pumped waterholes through the dry months. Game viewing is done from open vehicles and, at some camps, on foot with an armed guide.

Explore the area

Hwange National Park has more to offer than a single outing. Plan the rest of your time around it:
