Rhodes Matopos National Park Favorites

Favorite thing: Theres everything but elephant in the park, the park is too small for them. You do about a 4 hour drive including lunch by a nice lake. You can do part of the tour on foot which is a real opportunity to get close to animals!

Favorite thing: Although the main attraction of the Park are the rock formations, there are many wild animals to be seen, specially the black rhino (at last count, there were 35 in the park).
If you take a 1 day tour, you see the rocks in the morning and the animals in the afternoon, but we arrived at Bulawayo late for the 1 day tour, so did just half day and didn't see rhinos...

Favorite thing: The Rhodes National Park has a huge population of white rhinos....This art protection project is very helpful for this enangered animals!!!

We met this young white rhino with the guard. His mother didn´t took care of this cutie and so the guards were taking it for a walk.......

Favorite thing: At the Bambata Cave and other places you can see these animal paintings on the rock, all in red and really beautiful...

Favorite thing: The size of the rocks is unbelievable, as well as the fact of them being there, isolated.
It seems that giants would have pushed them up the hill to its actual position...

Favorite thing: The landscapes of the park are made basically of rocks, giving it the appearance of lunar surreal landscapes. From Rhodes tomb you can have a wonderful view of the park around.

Favorite thing: Noone ever brought them up here, they are lying here since ages.......and they are really beutiful I think!!!!

Favorite thing: At World´s View you will meet a lot of these colorful animals.... They love to sit on the heatened rocks.....
