One of Tanzania’s best kept wildlife secrets is the Ruaha national Park. Previous inaccessibility has ensured it has remained virtually unchanged for centuries, unaffected by the ravages of mankind.
Covering 10,300 sq km’s it is the country’s biggest elephant sanctuary. Its name derives from the Great Ruaha River which flows along its eastern border, creating spectacular gorges.
Flowing in to the Rufiji River, the Great Ruaha is home to hippo and crocodile.
