North Luangwa lies upstream of its better-known southern neighbour and receives far fewer visitors. Rivers, woodland and open areas create a serious wilderness environment with very limited permanent tourism infrastructure.
Experiencing North Luangwa National Park
Walking is central to the experience at specialist camps, supported by highly experienced guides. Wildlife includes elephant, buffalo, lion and an important black rhino conservation population.
Planning your stay
This region is best for experienced safari travellers comfortable with remoteness. It pairs naturally with South Luangwa for a revealing contrast in scale and visitor density.
