North Luangwa

Things to see in Zambia: North Luangwa

Luangwa Valley, North, Mwaleshi Camp, Zambia

Fact!: The final translocation of five black rhinos to North Luangwa happened in May, 2010. They join 20 black rhino (plus young) who are already there, which it is hoped will re-establish a viable breeding population after they were decimated by poachers in the 1980s.

North Luangwa National Park is separated from its southern cousin by the Munyamadzi Corridor. It is a virtually unexplored wilderness in safari terms with no permanent lodges. Its 6,000 square kilometres support a substantial wildlife population with lion, leopard, elephant being here in good numbers. It combines really well with South Luangwa (generally accessed by light aircraft from the south) and the emphasis here in the north is on vehicle-free safaris.
