Go on a canoe safari in Liuwa Plain

Paddle down the shallow rivers with wildlife all around you.

What you'll do

A special activity offered exclusively from King Lewanika Lodge (the first permanent safari camp in Liuwa Plains), canoeing in the rivers around the lodge is a real treat. Between late January and early April, the lands flood temporarily with water, producing pretty, reed-fringed rivers, just deep enough for canoeing. And when you’ve finished paddling, cool off with a refreshing dip – there’s not a hippo or a crocodile in sight.
