Liuwa Plain National Park
Set in Zambia’s far western region, Liuwa Plain is a remote landscape characterized by seasonal flooding and abundant wildlife.
The Lower Zambezi National Park is one of Zambia’s most exceptional wildlife areas. Together with Zimbabwe’s Mana Pools Reserve on the opposite banks of the river, the area provides a massive trans-frontier wildlife sanctuary.
The Lower Zambezi is accessible via direct flights from Lusaka or Mfuwe, or from Livingstone (via Lusaka). We believe the best months to visit are July through September. By October it’s often too hot but if you can handle the heat, the game viewing is at its absolute peak.
Other areas to explore
A visit to the Lower Zambezi puts you within easy reach of many other beautiful and fascinating parts of Zambia.
Livingstone
A compact, energetic town on the Zambian bank of the Zambezi, Livingstone is the gateway to Victoria Falls.
Kafue National Park
Kafue is the largest national park in Zambia and second-largest in all of Africa. It is a pristine wilderness with a wide variety of game and an astonishing 495+ species of birds on record.
Victoria Falls
Victoria Falls, the seventh wonder of the world, is located across the Falls from Livingstone, its sister town in Zambia. Activities abound and range from super active – bungee jumping, canoeing, whitewater rafting, to the more serene – river safaris, fishing and sunset cruises on the Zambezi River.
