Katavi National Park Size: 4,471 km²
Location: South-western Tanzania, east of Lake Tanganyika.
Katavi park has the highest concentration of game in Tanzania, and yet is the least visited by tourists - it has it's special flair. Here you can enjoy the feeling of an original safari as if you were the first to discover the wildest remote part of Africa. The park's main features are the watery-glossy plains to the north, the palm-fringed Lake Chala in the south-east, and the Katuma River. Nowhere in Africa is there a larger concentration of crocodiles or hippos. Herds of up to 1600 buffalos wander the short-grass plains. Elephants graze in the marshlands. More than 400 bird species are at home here. Back to overview
