Katavi National Park is situated in the remote western region of Tanzania, approximately 1,200 km from Dar es Salaam. It is one of the country’s most isolated national parks, offering an authentic and untouched wilderness experience.
Reaching Katavi can be challenging due to its remote location. The park is accessible by charter flights from Dar es Salaam, Arusha, or Zanzibar. Alternatively, visitors can embark on a long, adventurous road journey from major cities, though this can take several days.
The best time to visit Katavi is during the dry season, from June to October. During this period, the park’s wildlife congregates around the remaining water sources, making it easier to spot large herds of elephants, buffaloes, and other animals.
Katavi is known for its high concentrations of hippos, crocodiles, elephants, and buffaloes. The park also hosts lions, leopards, hyenas, and a variety of antelope species. Birdwatchers will enjoy the diversity of birdlife, with over 400 species recorded.
Visitors can enjoy game drives, walking safaris, and birdwatching in Katavi. The park’s vast and varied landscapes, from floodplains to woodlands, provide a dynamic environment for exploring and experiencing wildlife up close.
