Hunting Cape Buffalo and Sable as well as various plains game species in a truly wild, free roaming area. These hunts are conducted in the north western corner of Zimbabwe in the well known Matetsi safari area, established in 1973. Matetsi is home to a vast number of plains game as well as Lion, Leopard, Elephant, Sable and big herds of Cape Buffalo. Hunters who join Kwalata on this safari experience will have the opportunity to hunt one of the best hunting areas that Zimbabwe has to offer. Through years of cooperation with concession holders in Zimbabwe we have been able to establish a fixed quota on this area.

This truly African experience will provide hunters with outstanding trophies in an exceptional area.
