Did you Know?

The number of animals in Gorongosa decreased by 95% between 1977 and 1992 and is steadily recovering thanks to a 20-year partnership between the Mozambique Government and the Carr Foundation to protect and restore the ecosystems and wildlife and to develop a beneficial ecotourism model for people and planet.  

Extraordinary Ecosystems

  • Wildlife – spot lion, elephant, buffalo, wild dog, hippo, crocodile, waterbuck, oribi, wildebeest, warthog, bushpig, civet, grey mongoose, honey badger, yellow baboon, samango monkeys, water monitors, impala, and the sweet, secretive suni and nyala. The rare Mount Gorongosa pygmy chameleon (Rhampholeon gorongosae) is found only in the forests of Mount Gorongosa! 
  • African Wild Dog project – a pack of African Painted Dogs (African Wild Dog) was released into Gorongosa National Park in 2018 in partnership with the Endangered Wildlife Trust, after their absence of more than 25 years and now over 40 wild dogs roam the Park.
  • The Famous Lions of Gorongosa – hundreds of lions existed in Gorongosa in the 60s and 70s which then changed during the war years.  The park now aims to restore its wilderness as a lion stronghold once again – in just 50 years, lions in the wild have declined by 70% in Africa due to encroaching human numbers, loss of habitat, unsustainable trophy hunting, poaching and other conflicts. 
  • Birding Bonanza – find more than 400 bird species in the greater Gorongosa region, with more than 220 residents recorded in the Park – Fish Eagles, Palmnut Vultures, Paradise Flycatchers by the dozen, Pels Fishing Owls and Narina Trogons. The astounding Mount Gorongosa rainforest is home to Green Headed Orioles and is one of only four places to see Swynnerton’s Robin.

Gorongosa’s Ground-breaking Work in Conservation and Community

  • The savanna plains are dotted with forests of acacia and fever trees.  
  • There are dry forests in sandy areas, as well as wetlands or pans that are filled up in the rainy season and teeming with wildlife and birds. 
  • The plateaus contain both miombo and montane forests, as well as a spectacular rainforest at the bottom of a series of limestone gorges. 
  • Huge and ancient baobab trees and mixed palm forests show the successful restoration of one of Africa’s great biodiversity hotspots.
  • Songue is a water wonderland filled with every imaginable water bird, mammal and reptile. Watch as juvenile fish eagles hone their fishing skills, and storks and herons plucking fish from the muddy shallows. Spoonbill, egrets, jacanas, hamerkops, ducks, geese and pelicans, and more.

Why book Gorongosa now for 2025?

Gorongosa is rising in popularity as Africa’s top conservation destination. Booking early ensures the best availability and pricing for 2025’s peak safari season. Remember Gorongosa closes from 1 December to 15 April every year because of the floods that occur then and actually make this ecosystem so special. So it’s a short season and the park is not open all year round.

Booking a safari to Gorongosa National Park in 2025 is highly recommended to be done well in advance to ensure a seamless experience. This renowned park, located in central Mozambique, attracts travellers seeking a unique and immersive wildlife adventure. However, its increasing popularity and limited accommodation options make early reservations essential.

Additionally, booking in advance provides the opportunity to tailor your safari experience. You can choose from exclusive, guided tours that include game drives, walking safaris, and bird watching. These tours often require early booking to ensure availability of expert guides and to customize your itinerary according to your preferences. It is also likely you may have included other destinations like the Bazaruto Archipelago as part of your safari – many lodges here are booked up to a year in advance.
