Ruaha National Park, initially gazetted in the early 1950s, spans an impressive 10,300 km². It was primarily established to protect the Miombo woodland, which is dominated by two key tree species, Julbernardia and Brachystegia. These woodlands provide a rich habitat for a wide variety of wildlife. Over time, the park expanded to safeguard the critical water catchment area of the Great Ruaha River, ensuring a sustainable water supply for the park’s ecosystem and its abundant wildlife.
