Gonarezhou
The Place of the Elephant
Located in south eastern Zimbabwe Gonarezhou is Zimbabwe’s second largest national park after Hwange. Gonarezhou means ‘Place of the Elephant’ and was proclaimed a game reserve in 1968. The national park stays true to its name as it is famous for being home to a lot of elephants. In addition to the elephants Gonarezhou is also home to other wild animals such as the lion, leopards and giraffe.
History
Gonarezhou National Park, in Zimbabwe’s South-East Lowveld, covers just more than 5 000 km² of some of the most spectacular scenery in the region incorporating the iconic Chilojo Cliffs, wide meandering rivers and extensive woodlands. Widely known for its unique wilderness character, the Park’s reputation as a premier destination for quality wildlife sightings is also growing. Home to about 11 000 elephants, the Gonarezhou truly deserves its vernacular name as ‘Place of Elephants’.
