LIUWA PLAIN’S WILDEBEEST MIGRATION IN A LAND OF HIDDEN GEMS

Migration
As you take off over the vast Liuwa plains, helicopter blades whirring overhead, the orderly roads

Thatched roofs cluster around a campfire, fringed by rows of cassava, corn, and banana trees. As you pass by, small children smile brightly and wave their ‘Hellos’. Abruptly, the forest and villages fall away, and savannah fills your vision, rolling out to the farthest reaches of the horizon.

One of the most spectacular ecosystems in Zambia, both in diversity and abundance of species, sprawls before you:  Liuwa Plain National Park. Home to Africa’s second biggest wildebeest migration, a flourishing cheetah population, prolific hyenas, magnificent birdlife and the famed Lady Liuwa lion pride, this remote and little-visited park offers one of the best and most authentic natural and cultural experiences in all of Africa.
