The Lower Zambezi National Park is now undoubtedly one of the most fascinating parks in southern Africa. Covering 4,092 square kilometers and facing the Zimbabwean Mana Pools Reserve, it is characterized by its diversity of habitats and breathtakingly beautiful landscapes. Two-thirds of the park is covered by classic vegetation of scattered baobabs, shrubby savannah and mopane and miombo woodlands. The Lower Zambezi Park is characterized by magnificent forest areas composed of ebony trees, fig trees, mahogany trees, giant acacia trees, tamarind trees and sausage trees. It is home to all the wild animals of the region, with the exception of rhinos and giraffes. Elephants are particularly numerous, and it is not uncommon to see herds of several dozen individuals quenching their thirst by the river, whose waters abound with hippos and crocodiles. More than 400 species of birds have been recorded in the park, including martins and bee-eaters whose exuberant colors are a photographer's delight.Beware, the name "Lower Zambezi" generally confuses the valley and the national park. The latter only really begins at the Chongwe gate. Upstream of the park, there is the Chiawa Game Management Area where wild animals are also present, but more and more numerous as the park approaches.Fishing. Although some of the lodges are specifically geared towards fishing, all lodges can arrange fishing trips and provide equipment for the fishing enthusiast. The number of catches is subject toto regulations. The months of September and October are particularly rewarding. The ultimate in gastronomy is the bream, while the ultimate in sport is the tigerfish.
