Hwange National Park Safari and Overnight Hwange National Park really is a great game park and it is genuine Africa. Hwange National Park is not crowded with tourists as one might expect in Chobe National Park or even the Kruger. It's a wilderness with some of the best game viewing you can experience anywhere in Africa yet so few tourists in comparison. Spending the overnight at Hwange Safari lodge which is situated near the Park. There are many pans and pumped waterholes which attracts a lot of game around Main Camp.We will do two game drives for the overnight, first one its done the day we arrive from 3.30pm till 6.30pm & early morning drive which is good for sporting cats. After that we do our check out and drive back to Victoria Falls.
We leave Victoria Falls at 1100hrs on a 2hr & 30mins hrs drive headed to the Hwange National Park. We will arrive to an evening game drive. This is a good viewing time as animal dash to the watering holes to have the precious liquid. Sleep in the National park at an iconic hotel, definitely to the sounds of various animals hosting you for the night.
Wake up very early in the morning around 0500am for a game drive in the Hwange National Park. The quest is to try and spot cats as they are believed to be active at that time. Situated in the southwest of Zimbabwe, Hwange National Park is the largest National Park in the country, covering more than 14,600 square kilometres (5,863 square miles) or 1,460,000 hectares. Hwange National Park really is a great game park, for me it is genuine Africa, not filled with tourists in minibuses crowding around a lion kill as one might expect in Chobe National Park or even the Kruger. It's a wilderness with some of the best game viewing you can experience anywhere in Africa yet so few tourists in comparison. Spending our overnight at Sikumi Tree Lodge. There are numerous pans and pumped waterholes around Main Camp and the area is rich in game.
