Mwaleshi Camp, North Luangwa National Park, Zambia

A Tented Camp in Zambia

Camp Details

Mwaleshi Camp is located in the vast wilderness of North Luangwa National Park and is a 45 minute flight from Mfuwe Airport. Hidden within a scenic bend of the Mwaleshi River 10km upstream of the confluence with the Luangwa River, the camp is a truly special and remarkable place, unlike any other.

There are few roads in this remote area and the majority of activities are done on foot, following existing animal trails. All senses become attuned to the surrounding bush as guests experience the variations in the magical diversity of the area.

Walkers enjoy the freedom of Africa’s limitlessness on foot, accompanied by an experienced manager/guide and an armed National Park scout. Thanks to the availability of a vehicle – which drops off and collects guests – attractions further afield can be explored, such as the Mwaleshi Falls which is located upstream of the camp.

With just four thatched chalets rebuilt annually out of natural materials, en suite bathrooms open to the stars and uninterrupted views of the spectacular Mwaleshi River, the camp offers you a genuine feeling of solitude and seclusion. Life in camp is comfortable yet refreshingly simple.

WHY CHOOSE MWALESHI CAMP?

• It is the realness of the experience, that dash of adrenaline associated with standing downwind of an elephant and catching its unmistakable scent that make walking safaris unforgettable.
• Smaller mammals and over 400 recorded species of birds add to the game viewing experiences, reinforcing the Luangwa Valley’s impressive reputation as the home of Zambia’s wildlife.
