Kutendala Camp, Zambia

Set on a stunning site on the banks of the Mwaleshi River in the heart of the North Luangwa National Park, Kutandala Camp offers the ultimate safari for those who seek truly remote wilderness. The owners, Rob and Guz, run the camp as their own home - this is truly the definition of a "bushcamp". Made of reed, grass and poles, and taking only six guests, the camp is intimate and natural, exclusivity is guaranteed and you can drive or walk for days and not meet another soul. As well as the walking safaris there is the chance for an all day drive to the confluence of Mwaleshi and Luangwa rivers. Kutandala Camp is open from the 15th of June through to the 31st of October.

Location

Kutendala Camp can be reached by access from Mwaleshi Airstrip - an hour's drive from Kutandala Camp. The flight from Mfuwe (South Luangwa) to Mwaleshi takes approximately 45 minutes.
