Lower Zambezi National Park

The Lower Zambezi National Park faces the famous Mana Pools across the Zambezi River, creating one of southern Africa's finest wildlife corridors. The park's combination of riverine forest, open floodplain, and dramatic escarpment scenery provides a stunning setting for a multi-activity safari experience unique in Zambia.

Canoeing is the signature activity — drifting silently downstream in a two-person Canadian canoe, paddling past pods of hippos, herds of elephants drinking on the bank, and Nile crocodiles basking on sandbars. The perspective from water level is thrilling and humbling. Tiger fishing on the Zambezi is equally legendary, with these powerful, acrobatic fish providing some of the world's most exciting freshwater angling.

Game drives through the valley floor reveal large elephant herds in the mature albida woodlands, lion prides, leopards, and seasonal concentrations of buffalo. The dramatic escarpment rising 1,000 metres above the valley floor provides an ever-present backdrop that makes every photograph a work of art.
