The 5,035 km² (503,500ha) Gonarezhou Nation­al Park lies in the south­east cor­ner of Zim­bab­we, and is sep­a­rat­ed from South Africa’s Kruger Nation­al Park (two mil­lion ha) by a nar­row strip of unfenced com­mu­ni­ty land. Gonarezhou is the sec­ond-largest nation­al park in Zim­bab­we, sec­ond only to Hwange (1,5 mil­lion ha), and hosts a sig­nif­i­cant grow­ing ele­phant pop­u­la­tion of more than 11,000. Read this com­pre­hen­sive sto­ry by our CEO who spent time in Gonarezhou with friends, as a guest of park man­age­ment.
