The Kilombero Valley consist of over 14,000 square kilometers of unspoiled African wilderness. Here you will find a minimal human footprint. Kilombero contains one of Africa's most scenic ecosystems with large rivers, forests, miombo forests and mountains.
Kilombero Valley's unique terrain, density of buffalo and excellent trophy quality contribute to some of the best buffalo hunts in Africa. In our Kilombero hunting blocks you will find fantastic buffalo habitats with grass covered miombo forests and many kilometers of rivers flowing through the area.
The large population of buffalo also attracts large numbers of lions and leopards, making the Kilombero Valley a particularly good hunting ground for the big cats.
Most of the river systems in the Kilombero Valley are untouched by humans. These unspoilt rivers are thus automatically home to large numbers of hippos and ancient crocodiles. Compared to other rivers that run through our hunting blocks in the Kilombero Valley, our hunting quota for crocodiles and hippos is low, resulting in excellent trophy quality animals.
The river systems of the Kilombero Valley also offer ideal fly fishing conditions for large tigerfish. In certain areas you can fish from the river bank or from a boat. We have experienced fishing guides who are happy to share their knowledge.
Kilombero Valley is therefore the area you should hunt in if you want hunting experiences of completely unique quality!
