The story of this place
Katavi National Park is a remote wilderness in western Tanzania, set within the Rift Valley landscape around the seasonal Katuma River and floodplains. During the dry season, shrinking water sources can concentrate large numbers of animals, including buffaloes, elephants, zebras, giraffes and hippos. The park is also known for crocodiles, predators and expansive grasslands that create a strong sense of isolation. Its distance from the main tourist routes means that visitor numbers are usually low, making Katavi particularly attractive to experienced safari travellers seeking a quieter and more adventurous wilderness experience.
