Hallo, As you vcan imagine it is hard to get info about Matobo before you travel. The Rhino walks you did was this with a National Park ranger? Where / how did you book? How long do they go for? Is there way you can book before hand, or do you need to wait until you arrive at Matobos. We are staying 2 nights in December at the National Parks Maleme Rest Camp. Are the walks in the morning or afternoon - what time do the start?? I am a bit surprised that they walks only cost $20 - sounds cheap fro Zimanbawe. What were your highlight of Matobos - game walks, caves, rock paintings, views, dams, swimming holes, picnic place etc Regards Kai Magnetic Island Australia

My absolute highlight is the lanfscape with stunning rock formations. You don't go to Matobo for game (except the Rhinos). You may book a rhino tracking in advance via email, matoboparks at gmail The USD 20 is the rate for residents, not sure about foreigners. The walk is from about 7am to 9 am or from about 4PM to 6 PM. Wanderers or Black Rhino Safari offer (better?) packages. You find their websites easily.
Hi, kaiser6. What would you like to know about this attraction? Id like to get more info about the Rhino trekking; the USD 20 sounds a great deal for 1/2 day. - is this done by Nat Parks or privately. Who do we contact. Are teenage kids allowed to participate?

Sorry for the late reply, somehow didn't get the notice before today. In case it is still interesting for someone: the rhino tracking is done by the Parks officials. We simply booked it the day before at the park reception. We were able to take our teenage kids (then 13 and 16). And it was well worth it, you could get really close to these animals, and it was very quiet and peaceful. Enjoy
Hi, I am planning got visit Matobo and camp in September. We don't have a car so any ideas how we can get there from Bulawayo/ (We are getting a train to there from livingstone) Is there a bus we can get? Would we need a car to travel around the part or is there guided tours? Thanks in advance

Sorry, no idea as a local friend brought me there ...
Hello: I am interested in visiting Matopo NP, and hope to stay in the Amalinda Lodge. My questions are about the Rhino tracking for which the park is famous. I hope someone can answer my questions: 1. Are Rhino really prevalent in the park and fairy easy to find or is it just a marketing gimmick by them? 2. I have read that the Rhinos are all de-horned and tagged for conservation reasons. Is it true they are all de-horned? Did you see any which are not de-horned? Thanks Thank You

I can assure you that there are Rhinos in the Matobo Hills park. The Camp Amalinda guides are good and can liaise with the Rangers to track them. The Rhinos are not de-horned. On …
I can assure you that there are Rhinos in the Matobo Hills park. The Camp Amalinda guides are good and can liaise with the Rangers to track them. The Rhinos are not de-horned. On my last two visits we have seen the Rhino and I had seen hem prior to that. Good choice to stay at Camp Amalinda. Really good property and very friendly and helpful staff. Hope this helps.
