The park is close to the edge of the Kalahari desert, a region with little water and very sparse, xerophile vegetation. The Kalahari woodland is dominated by Zambezi Teak, Sand Camwood (Baphia) and Kalahari bauhinia. Seasonal wetlands form grasslands in this area.
The north and north-west of the park are dominated by mopane woodland.
Although it has been argued that elephant populations cause change in vegetation structure, some recent studies suggest that this is not the case, even with the large increases in elephant population recorded in the late 1980s. The Park hosts over 100 mammal and 400 bird species, including 19 large herbivores and eight large carnivores. All Zimbabwe's specially protected animals are to be found in Hwange and it is the only protected area where gemsbok and brown hyena occur in reasonable numbers. Grazing herbivores are more common in the Main Camp Wild Area and Linkwasha Concession Area, with mixed feeders more common in the Robins woodlands.

Nothing beats the sight of animals flocking at a waterhole in numbers when on a game drive. If you want such an experience Hwange National Park is the place to be. Very educational experience too.

If you want to experience African animals the place to be is Hwange National Park. It was such a wow experince, having to see the big five animals at close range was an experience of a life tim. The drive was fun, at least the guide kept us all calm at the same time educating us. Hwange National park is the plug. I also loved cool refreshments and snacks served. Hwange can be very hot take with sunhats as well.

This is where animals are at! A real game drive is at Hwange National Park, one of the largest National parks in Zimbabwe. The day just flew by as there was so much to see, so much to do and so much fun being had. Animals came in their numbers to the watering hole. It was spectacular.
If you want an “animal packed” game drive and you have a day to spare, please do this one.
The staff was very professional. They made the trip comfortable, fun and educational.
