This World Rhino Day feels a little extra special here in Matusadona National Park🦏🧡

For the first time in decades, rhino are once again roaming their rightful home! A sight that was once missing from this landscape for far too long!

Their return is a remarkable conservation milestone, made possible through the incredible work of African Parks and the Matusadona Conservation Trust, alongside the many people dedicated to protecting this special wilderness!

Today, we celebrate the return of a species that belongs here — and look forward to a future where rhino once again thrive in Matusadona National Park🌿🦏

Fly fishing with a view 🎣

There’s something pretty special about casting a line across Lake Kariba, with the Matusadona Mountains rising in the distance. Quiet waters, wild surroundings and the chance to simply slow down and enjoy the moment.

At Fothergill Island, even fly fishing comes with a spectacular backdrop. 🌿
