Still wild and relatively untouched, the Lower Zambezi National Park along the Zambezi River is a Zambezi safari destination second-to-none. The Lower Zambezi National Park, opposite Zimbabwe’s Mana Pools National Park, allows visitors easy access to waterside game viewing of the plentiful wildlife.

The mighty Zambezi River is tamed by the Lower Zambezi valley, becoming gentle as it spreads languidly across the Valley. Islands and floodplains create a densely vegetated habitat for a wide variety of wildlife, elephant in particular. The Lower Zambezi National Park has a thriving population of predators and remarkable birdlife.

Inland is a floodplain filled with mopane and acacia trees where giraffe nibble on the green leaves. The Zambezi Escarpment provides a dramatic backdrop to the Park. This area is seasonal and many of the lodges and camps are closed from November to March.
