The area first received protection in 1926 and later became an official national park in 1968. This growth in protection reflects the region's commitment to safeguarding its natural heritage.
People living near the park follow customs that show deep knowledge of the land and how to live alongside wildlife. This long-standing relationship shapes how the area is cared for today.
The park can be visited but requires planning ahead, especially during the dry season when access is easier. Guided tours are available to help you explore different areas safely.
