South Luangwa National Park
South Luangwa National Park – Zambia
South Luangwa National Park is situated in the Luangwa Valley which sits at the bottom end of Africa’s Great Rift Valley, leading southwards from Lake Tanganyika. The main area of the park is bordered to the west by the Muchinga Escarpment and the Luangwa River provides the east and southern borders. Luamfa Area is in the southern area of the park and the Nsefu sector is on the east side of the Luangwa River which even feeds into the mighty Zambezi River. South Luangwa is the best national park in Zambia for scenery and wildlife. Vegetation ranges from dense woodland to open grassy plains, and oxbow lagoons act as natural water holes. South Luangwa is Zambia’s premier game viewing park, where you can enjoy a unique type of habitat seldom seen elsewhere in Africa. The seasonal floodplains create an environment that supports a huge diversity of wildlife including over 100 species of mammals and over 420 species of birds as well as many reptiles, insects, amphibians and plants. A totally different experience to parks elsewhere in Africa, Luangwa offers a real immersion to the bush life in an attractive habitat of sausage trees and lagoons. In the stunning light of early morning and late afternoon, one can often see elephants, impala, puku, troops of baboons, hosts of water birds, crocodiles and hippos all through the same view finder of your camera or binoculars! The park is reputed to have the highest concentration of leopard in Africa. It is estimated that there is one Leopard for every kilometre of river in the Luangwa Valley, so your chances of seeing this elusive nocturnal cat are heightened in this park.
