Matetsi Game Reserve
Upstream Victoria Falls

There is a wild and untouched stretch of the mighty Zambezi River 40 kilomteres upstream of the Victoria Falls, fringed by a band of high riverine forest, a dreamy place of unhurried pleasure and deep serenity that echoes with birdsong. Here you will find Matetsi Water Lodge and Matetsi Safari Camp, situated in the private Matetsi Game Reserve. Matetsi extends over 50 000 hectares of wilderness, the largest private game reserve in Zimbabwe.

With 15 kilometres of private Zambezi River frontage, Matetsi offers an unrivalled river experience and forms part of a huge wildlife paradise straddling two countries - there are no fences between it and Botswana's Chobe National Park and the Okavango Delta. As many as 50 000 elephants live here - the highest concentration on earth.
