Kasaka River Lodge

Kasaka River Lodge is a twenty two bed luxury en-suited tented camp nestled on the banks of the Zambezi River in the Chiawa Game Management. This is the only stretch on the Zambezi River where one finds National Parks on both banks of the river - the Lower Zambezi National Park in Zambia and the famed Mana Pools World Heritage Site in Zimbabwe.

Kasaka River Lodge has eight chalets which are luxurious and tastefully decorated with an authentic African flavour. Each has an elegantly furnished en-suite bathroom with flush toilets and powerful heated showers. All chalets provide freshly laundered towels and bathrobes plus toiletries for your convenience will be found in our bathrooms. Twin 13 amp 3 pin square socket outlets conforming to UK standards can be found in bathroom areas.

Guests have an option of staying on the 'tame' side with manicured gardens nearest the swimming pool or on the 'wild' side, which is connected by overhead walkways to allow for the passage of wildlife within the camp. The Lower Zambezi National Park is situated about 20 minutes drive from Kasaka. The beauty of this park is that is it relatively untouched and offers a range of different habitats. The Zambezi, overhung with a thick riverine fringe, grassy floodplains inland fringed with mopane forests full of winter thorn trees and the escarpment hills, provide a dramatic backdrop to your safari experience.

The National Park is home to herds of Elephant and Buffalo and offers frequent sightings of Lion and Leopard. Impala, Waterbuck and Kudu are common sightings as are Zebra, Warthog, Monkeys, Baboons and Hyena. The thrill of safari really comes to light when the sunsets and the vehicle's spotlight is used to track the animals. Civet's, Porcupines, Genets and Honey badgers are a few of the nocturnal animals you are likely to encounter.
