Inside the park
Park-run (Gonarezhou Conservation Trust)
Gonarezhou is over five thousand square kilometres and its internal roads are slow, so the Trust maintains three simple transit sites for people moving between the northern Runde and southern Mwenezi sections. Basic in the best way: firepit, bush loo, silence.
Why you'd pick it
- The cheapest legal night inside the park
- Made for crossing this very large park at a sane pace
- Two-night maximum keeps them available
What's here
- Campsite
- Self-catering
Read from Transit campsites (3 sites)'s own website in July 2026. Anything not listed we could not confirm, which is not the same as it being absent.
What the park charges on top
The rate above buys you a bed. Gonarezhou National Park charges its own entry fee for every day you are inside. Here is what that adds up to.
- Park entryThe rate for guests staying in a park camp.
- $15per person, per day
- VehicleRoughly $5 to $10 a day depending on the vehicle.
- $8per vehicle, per day
Three nights means three days inside, so two adults sharing one vehicle pay $114 in park fees before anyone pays for a bed.
Sleeping inside the boundary is what keeps that low. $15 if you sleep in a park camp, against $25 a day for anyone driving in from outside.
The full fee schedule for Gonarezhou National ParkRates
From $50 pppn (Local). Local $50, SADC $60, International $100 per person per night, minimum-charge basis, maximum two nights, 3 to 12 adults.
What the rate covers is not confirmed. We do not know yet whether meals, drinks and activities are included, so read this as the bed only.
Every figure on this page is in US dollars.
Rates are the Gonarezhou Conservation Trust's own published figures and operators' rate cards, gathered July 2026, quoted Local / SADC / International where the Trust publishes all three tiers. Accommodation rates generally exclude the daily conservation fee; confirm the total with the Trust when you book. Two names you may still find elsewhere, Mahenye Lodge and Senuko, could not be verified as currently operating: their websites no longer resolve and neither appears on any current operator list.
