Lower Zambezi National
Park:
Covering
an area of 4,092 km square, the Lower Zambezi National Park encompasses
part of the Zambezi River in Zambia and is the newest park in
the country. As such it is still underdeveloped with very few
roads
and many areas of the park are not accessible by car. The wildlife
population here is not as extensive as in other Zambian parks
though the main attraction is the natural unhampered vegetation
and state
of “wilderness”.
The park also offers opportunities
to view wildlife up-close while traveling along the river,
its streams or on foot. For accommodation, there are a number
of
good lodges and camps within the park.
Wildlife: animals at the park include; crocodile, hippo, elephant,
leopard, lion, hyena, impala, zebra, waterbuck, kudu, warthog,
leopard and fish eagle.
