The Kasanka Wildlife Reserve
The Kasanka Trust is a Charity working to conserve and develop Kasanka National Park
The Kasanka Trust is a wildlife charity based in Zambia and the UK, which manages the Kasanka National Park in Zambia's Central province and hosts visitors and volunteers to Kasanka and the Bangweulu.
Kasanka is Zambia's only national park under private management and is entirely reliant on tourism revenue and charitable funding. It is a valuable conservation area with diverse flora and fauna including many endangered species and exceptional bird life.
The Bangweulu Wetlands
just north of Kasanka are one of Africa's most spectacular wildlife secrets with over 100,000 Black Lechwe and the world's most visible Shoebill storks.
Kasanka National Park and the adjacent Bangweulu Wetlands make very rewarding destinations for visitors seeking to delve deeper into Africa's hidden corners.
There are great opportunities for education and research in a real wilderness but with good supportive infrastructure. The Trust welcomes volunteers for both conservation and research.
The Mutinondo Wilderness
Lying to the East of Kasanka and Bangweulu, the Mutinondo Wilderness is a plot of land under private management near the top of the great Muchinga escarpment. It's a beautiful wilderness area with rocky outcrops, rivers and streams, rolling woodlands and grassy dambos.
Although it is not yet well stocked with Game animals, the Mutinondo Wilderness is an exciting initiative which aims to involve the local community closely its management and plant the seed of more productive resource management and land use. There is a lodge and a campsite for visitors to stay at and a range of activities from walks, swimming and boating in the rivers, bird watching, and guided geological tours.
