Who We Are
The Malilangwe Trust is a proudly Zimbabwean, non-profit organisation. Our conservation activities are focused within 50 000 ha of the Malilangwe Wildlife Reserve in south-eastern Zimbabwe. We are committed to several projects which contribute to uplifting the lives of people who live in our neighbouring communities along the borders of the Reserve.
Since establishment of The Malilangwe Trust in 1994, our goal is to develop and implement methods for successful conservation and protection of wildlife, with the aim of becoming a leader in science-based management of African protected areas. Through education and tourism, our hope is to inspire people to become ambassadors for conservation.

The waterhole is teeming with life; a constantly changing scene as an extraordinary array of species are drawn together for the same liquid gold. 💦

The Malilangwe Trust is proud to be joining the 2026 #wildliferangerchallenge standing alongside ranger teams from across Africa in support of the men and women protecting the continent’s wildlife and wild places.
In 2025, the Challenge united 150 four-person teams from 62 ranger organisations, raising US$3.35 million to strengthen frontline conservation. This year, we’re ready to do it again.💪🏼
Behind every thriving wildlife population and protected habitat is a ranger who has walked countless kilometres, endured long days and sleepless nights, and remained steadfast in their commitment to protecting the irreplaceable remaining wilderness areas. Yet the challenges facing rangers continue to grow, and so too does the need for meaningful support. Through July, August and September our Scouts are participating in a number of varying challenges; culminating in the 21km pack run on Sept 19th.
Our gratitude to @tusk_org and @gamerangersassociationofafrica for the event organisation and their ongoing support to rangers across Africa.

Some of the greatest achievements in conservation are rarely witnessed. They are measured by a poaching incident prevented, in the countless kilometres of patrols across every season away from loved ones, an endangered species that continues to recover, and via the next generation that is inspired through quiet discipline and a motivating attitude. As the frontline guardians of a changing planet, Malilangwe’s Scouts are not only safeguarding wildlife today, they are helping secure a future where Zimbabwe’s wildlife heritage continues to flourish.
Across Africa, scouts and rangers stand at the intersection of biodiversity conservation, ecosystem resilience and human livelihoods; safeguarding landscapes that are continually shaped by external pressures and an increasingly busy world. Every patrol and animal monitored, and every meaningful engagement with communities contributes to something far greater than a day’s work and we are incredibly grateful for their professionalism, resolve and courage - THANKYOU.
We also honour the memory and legacy of our fallen colleagues and their families across the continent that have given the ultimate sacrifice. Their legacy lives on in the wild places and species safeguarded and in the future generations that will inherit and benefit from the remarkable natural world they dedicated their lives to protecting.

For thousands of years, the sandstone hills of Malilangwe have watched over the Lowveld, shaped by time and standing resilient through the changing seasons. Today they form the heart of one of Zimbabwe’s most biodiverse protected landscapes.
Their rugged slopes and hidden valleys create a rich mosaic of habitats that support an extraordinary diversity of plants and wildlife. From elusive predators and breeding raptors to unique reptiles, pollinating insects and ancient trees rooted firmly amongst the rocks.
