Dolomites truly feel like something out of a fairytale. Alpine meadows surrounded by jagged peaks line the landscape around the Italian Alps. One of my favorite parts of visiting this area is the Rifugios; tiny mountain huts serving hot food, drinks, and occasionally offering a place to spend the night, all surrounded by some of the most picturesque mountains in the world. These huts become a melting pot of local and foreign culture as travelers take a break from the steep mountain trail that navigates around the surrounding region. There’s no place quite like the Dolomites.","ttl":"10_The Dolomites_Jakob Lilja-Ruiz"},"abstract":"The 2026 Winter Olympics will have a stunning backdrop—but beyond the superb skiing and breathtaking scenery, northern Italy has much to offer, from distinctive folk traditions to Michelin dining.","title":"The Dolomites and Milan 2026: What to see and do","tags":[{"name":"","id":"_none","type":"custom"}],"abTest":{"testId":"ng_pw_copy-287","variantId":"variant_a-1126","type":"paywallTest","variant":"variant_a","abTest":"ng_pw_copy-287*variant_a-1126"}},{"id":"f4c77229-492e-4056-9250-08c70b83d1ec","cmsType":"RegularStandardPrismTile","isPremium":false,"isEntitled":false,"isUserAuthed":false,"pageType":"hub","storyId":"drn:src:natgeo:unison::prod:a2f33978-e855-4f61-98c6-e513263fc487","cId":"f4c77229-492e-4056-9250-08c70b83d1ec_a2f33978-e855-4f61-98c6-e513263fc487","description":"With its northern lights and midnight sun, this Nordic beauty has long gone under the radar—but no more.

I spent 4 days photographing Akagera National Park in the southeastern part of Rwanda, bordering with Tanzania. The area of the park is 1,122 km2 (433 sq mi), 50% of its original size. Overall, the park’s habitat it is a dry savannah bush habitat with a large wetland complex that forms the natural border to the east with Tanzania. The western 75km of the park is entirely fenced with an electric fence to keep the wildlife from spilling out into the bordering subsistence farming and cattle herding communities. From the African Parks ‘s Website: https://www.africanparks.org/the-parks/akagera Akagera is almost unrecognizable today compared to just 20 years ago when it was on the verge of being lost forever. While peace was finally restored in the 1990s after the 1994 Genocide against Tutsis, Akagera’s demise was just beginning. Refugees returning to Rwanda after the genocide were still battling for their own survival and turned to the forests for timber, wildlife for protein and the wild savannahs for their livestock. Lions were hunted to local extinction, rhinos disappeared, and the park’s wildlife was displaced by tens of thousands of long-horned cattle. Biodiversity was practically lost, and with it so was employment and tourism. The park’s value was diminished to the point of not existing at all. Which makes where Akagera is today, with its story of revival, even more remarkable. In 2010, African Parks assumed management of Akagera in partnership with the Rwanda Development Board (RDB), shifting the park's trajectory from one of oblivion to prosperity and hope. After years of preparation, through effective law enforcement and management, 2017 saw the historic return of 18 Eastern black rhinoceros after a 10-year absence, thanks to the support from the Howard G. Buffett Foundation. Two new male lions were also translocated to Akagera in 2017 to enhance the genetic diversity of the growing pride, which has now tripled since their reintroduction in 2015. With poaching essentially halted, the park’s key wildlife populations have continued to rise. More than 44,000 tourists visited the park in 2018 alone, half of whom were Rwandan nationals, bringing in a record US$2 million in revenue and making the park 75% self-sustaining in just eight years. Akagera Highlights •In 2017, 18 Eastern black rhinoceros were reintroduced to Akagera bringing the species back to the park, and the country of Rwanda after a 10-year absence •Lions were reintroduced in 2015 after they were hunted out in the 1990s, and the population doubled in the first year with the birth of eleven cubs. Two additional males were translocated from South Africa to Akagera in 2017 to increase the population’s genetic diversity •We overhauled law enforcement and significantly reduced poaching to an all time low for the park •A counter-poaching canine unit was trained and deployed in 2015 to help secure the park •A 120 km solar powered predator-proof fence was constructed and significantly reduced human-wildlife conflict situations •More than 1,800 school children visit Akagera each year along with teachers and local leaders as part of the environmental education programme •Tourism revenue has increased by more than 900 percent from US$200,000 in 2010 to US$2M in 2018 making Akagera 75% self-financing •More than 44,000 tourists visited the park in 2018 alone, half of whom were Rwandan nationals •Ruzizi Tented Lodge and Karenge Bush Camp are award-winning lodging options for visitors which helps support the park","ttl":"20_Akagera Ntl Park_Ronan Donovan"},"abstract":"Lions, white rhinos, elephants, and giraffes have been reintroduced to a park that was once nearly devastated by civil war.
