LOWOMBWA LODGE
- Kasanka National Park

Located on the banks of the Luwombwa River in the western half of the park nearer the airstrip, this lodge has also recently been upgraded with the addition of new ensuite chalets overlooking the river. Some of these are family chalets with 4 beds in each.

Some older chalets with separate bathrooms are also available.

The prime attraction of Luwombwa Lodge must be the river. Unlike most safari river trips, the Luwombwa is a gentle meandering stream heavily fringed with evergreen forest. Birdwatching can be great with African Finfoot, Narina Trogon and Pel’s Fishing Owl all regularly seen, not to mention kingfishers, bee-eaters, sunbirds and ibises.

For fishermen a special permit is available allowing you to catch Bream (Tilapia), Barbel Fish and sometimes the much sought after tigerfish. Motor boats and canoes with guides are available at the lodge.

Luwombwa also has nearby gameviewing, noteably at the Chikufwe Plain where the airstrip is located, and Reedbuck, duikers, Lichenstein’s hartebeast and Sable antelope are often seen
