Mushandike Sanctuary in Zimbabwe lies approximately 25 km from Masvingo along the Bulawayo Road, covering some 13,360 ha of miombo woodlands, open grasslands and rocky outcrops with the 417 ha Mushandike Dam at its heart. Its remarkable diversity of plains wildlife—ranging from kudu, sable, waterbuck, klipspringer, steenbok, tsessebe, blue wildebeest, impala and warthog—as well as rich bird populations offers meaningful insights into southern Africa's ecosystems. The sanctuary supports a variety of experiences such as boating, fishing, walking safaris, picnicking, camping and caravanning, with facilities including fireplaces and ablution blocks tied to the Mushandike College of Wildlife Management, which is uniquely located within the reserve. A significant conservation initiative saw ZimParks move over 100 animals—including giraffes, zebras, warthogs, sables and wildebeest—from Kyle Recreational Park to Mushandike, enhancing biodiversity and enriching both tourism and hands-on learning for wildlife students.
Very bureaucratic. Entrance
Protocol took a looong time. I had to prove my Zimbabwean residence with id etc. there was no senior citizen's discount. Pretty lake and clean ablutions .

The bathrooms need a revamp, most of them were dirty and the water supply was erratic.
