Kafue National Park - KNP

Link to Kafue NP
Kafue is Zambia’s oldest park and by far the largest. It was proclaimed in 1950 and is spread over 22 400 square kilometres - the second largest national park in the world and about the size of Wales.
Despite the Park’s proximity to both Lusaka and the Copperbelt, it has remained underdeveloped until the most recent years. Despite the depravations of poaching and lack of management, the Park is still a raw and diverse slice of African wilderness with excellent game viewing, birdwatching and fishing opportunities.

Link to South Luangwa NP
The Luangwa River rolls out of Tanzania, drifting slowly through Zambia on
its way toward the Zambezi. As it winds southwest, it meanders through open
woodlands, its waters curving into oxbow lakes and silty lagoons. Off to the
west, the Mchinga Escarpment rises to form a natural wall. Between the river
and the rift lies one of the last hidden jewels of Africa: Zambia's South
Luangwa National Park.
