A unique elephant
awareness activity

How To Reach EleCrew:

  1. Start in Victoria Falls town (around Livingstone Way/Zambezi Drive).

  2. Head south-east on the A8/Bulawayo Road out of town.

  3. After about 6 km, you’ll pass the junctions to several lodges (Gorges Lodge, Stanley & Livingstone, Jafuta Lodge) on your left.

  4. Continue following that main paved road for roughly 15 km in total to reach Jafuta Reserve—the turnoff is clearly sign‑posted, typically shared with “Jafuta Lodge” signs ().

  5. The road surface is in good condition near town, but farther out it can have potholes, especially after rain—so the advice is to use a 4×4 or SUV and drive during daylight.

Approximate distance/time:
– ~15 km / 20–25 minutes by car.
– Allow extra time in the dry season or if using a smaller vehicle due to road quality.
