Visit the local communities of Hwange

The wildlife and epic landscapes may have brought you to Hwange but your trip doesn't have to be a 24/7 safari. Many of the lodges in the area have forged a strong relationship with the local community and you'll have the chance to visit a traditional homestead, hear stories from the residents and learn about the ancient crafting skills that have been passed down for generations. You can even buy handmade items at the market to remember your trip. Hwange is home to a number of protected animals including roan, elephant and the African painted dog, and there are a number of conservation projects that you can visit and get involved with too!
