LIUWA NATIONAL PARK

Liuwa Plains National Park is renowned for its transformation into the spectacle of the second largest Wildebeest migration in the world. This area is one of the few remaining pristine wilderness areas in the World which never fails to leave one with a deep sense of peace and harmony.

 The birdlife is abundant and the dramatic storms with lightning ripple across the horizon, creating fantastic photographic opportunities. You are likely to see large flocks of crowned and wattled cranes in their natural habitat.

With the onset of the rains, the massive herds of blue wildebeest arrive from Angola, traversing the plains in their thousands, very often mingling with zebra along the way and gathering around water holes and pans.

Unusual antelope found include oribi, red lechwe, steenbok, duiker, tsessebe and roan antelope. Jackal, serval, African wildcat, wild dog as well as lion and hyena are the predators seen in the area.

Royal Barotse Safaris have packaged together the perfect itinerary in the footsteps of the famous explorers of old. It takes in the Victoria Falls, Liuwa Plains, the second largest waterfall on the Zambezi - Ngonye Falls and Mutemwa Lodge which is perfectly situated on an exclusive expanse of the kilometer wide mighty Zambezi.
