Ruaha
Remote Wilderness • Predators
The largest national park in Tanzania, and one of the wildest — a stronghold for lion, leopard and endangered African wild dog.
A place that rewards the unhurried traveller.
Ruaha rewards the traveller who wants distance from the classic circuit. Days here are spent tracking large prides, watching elephants at the sand rivers, and returning to intimate camps that host only a handful of guests. It pairs naturally with Nyerere or Mahale for a wilder, more remote Southern journey.
