Destination: The Luangwa Valley and Kafue national Park in Zambia.
Synopsis:
Geologically, the Luangwa Valley is part of Africa’s southern spurs. It is nearly 500 kilometres long and on average 120 kilometres wide. The Luangwa River meanders down its length. Fed by many tributaries that rush out of the hills in the rainy season, it winds through flat alluvial country where it changes its course often and leaves behind a random pattern of ox-bow lagoons that flank the river on both sides, until it reaches the Zambezi escarpment and flows through a series of gorges and finally empties in the Zambezi. The Valley is fertile, and its lush ravine vegetation, its dense thickets, the vast Mopane forests and its shimmering lagoons are home to a unique variety of wildlife. The Luangwa Valley is home to three national parks namely South Luangwa, North Luangwa and Luambe, nestled in between.
