Nyerere National Park (Selous)

Nyerere National Park, formerly the Selous Game Reserve, is Africa's largest protected wildlife area at over 30,000 square kilometres in southern Tanzania. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the park is renowned for its large populations of elephants, wild dogs, hippos, and crocodiles along the mighty Rufiji River. Unlike the northern circuit, Nyerere offers boat safaris, walking safaris, and fly-camping in true off-the-beaten-track wilderness with very few other visitors.
