Nanzhila Plains Camp

Nanzhila Plains, southern Kafue National Park, Zambia

A remote camp in southern Kafue’s open plains, offering genuine wilderness far from the park’s more accessible northern sector.

Overview

Nanzhila Plains Camp sits in the open grasslands of southern Kafue National Park, a genuinely remote property offering access to a section of the park rarely visited even by Kafue’s already modest tourist numbers.

Rooms & Table

The Rooms

Simple chalets set among the plains, comfortably furnished in keeping with the camp’s remote, low-impact character.

Food & Service

Home-style meals served communally, with the camp’s isolation making for a genuinely intimate stay.

Activities

Game drives and walking safaris across the Nanzhila Plains, one of Kafue’s least-visited and most rewarding areas for dedicated wilderness travellers.

Wildlife & Photography

The southern plains support cheetah, wild dog, and large herds of red lechwe and other antelope species adapted to the open floodplain grassland.

A Photographer's Note

The open plains topography, rare within the wider Kafue ecosystem’s denser woodland, offers unusually clear sightlines for predator and antelope photography.

Conservation & Impact

The camp supports conservation and anti-poaching capacity in one of the most under-resourced sections of an already under-visited national park.
