Wild West of Zambia

Kafue

Pick-up from your hotel/lodge in Livingstone, we drive on along the course of the Zambezi river up to the beautiful Ngonye Falls, not as mighty as the “big brother further south, but equally impressive. The Zambezi spreads into several channels and the masses of water find their way through the basalt rock formations. We will hike around the area and cross the river by boat to an island to get the best view of the falls. Camping near the river. (-/L/D)

There are few roads in Liuwa Plain National Park. That, however, this part of the park’s attraction: around 3660km² of untouched Africa. Most of this is a vast honey-coloured plain of grass, with just the occasional water pan, island of raffia palms or small tree-belt interrupting the scenery. Thousands of wildebeest, with zebra and buffalo, joining the more static resident, red lechwe and reedbuck. Camping inside the National Park (FB). Camping near the river. (FB)

On the way to the west we will arrive in Mongu, our stop over at the edge of the Barotse floodplains. Here we have the possibility to stock up for the next few days in Kafue National Park. Camping on the edge of the Barotse Plains. (FB)
