Kafue National Park

Kafue National Park, covering an expansive 22,400 km2 in western Zambia, makes up a significant portion of the world’s largest transboundary conservation area, known as the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA TFCA). The park was proclaimed in 1950, making it Zambia’s oldest national park and one of the world’s most important natural heritage sites. As an essential water source for the region, Kafue is also one of the last vast expanses of the iconic Zambezian ecoregion – and home to elephant, large predators, the highest diversity of antelope species in Africa, and 515 bird species.
