Matusadona National Park is situated on the Zimbabwe shoreline of Lake Kariba. The Park comprises some 1 400 square kilometers of rugged wilderness, hosting significant populations of Africa's large game species. Matusadona has three distinct ecological areas. First is the lake and shoreline grassland; second, the Zambezi Valley floor, a mass of thick Jesse and Mopane woodland, and thirdly, the Escarpment area of the Julbernadia and Brachystegia woodlands. The Jesse/ Mopani area is sparsely grassed, but provides habitat for browsers, most notably the black rhino. Elephants range throughout the Park. The park is ideal for self-drive safaris and there are several remote campsites situated throughout the reserve. In addition there are a few private camps offering full board amenities and guided game drive, walking, boating and fishing safaris.
