Named after the local Kaonde name for monkey-bread tree, Musekese lies just 25 minutes by boat from Lufupa airstrip in the centre of Kafue National Park.
Musekese occupies a low ridge overlooking a long, seasonally-inundated, grassy floodplain or dambo, which in turn looks onto the Kafue River. The sounds of the bush orchestra surround the camp with leopard coughing at night, hippo snorting and the eerie call of the scops owl.
Accommodation comprises of four units. The comfortable rooms and open-air en suite bathrooms, are screened by panels of thatch and gauze, contain a flushing toilet, basin and bucket shower – water is heated on a wood fire and brought when required.
A large thatched roof and deck at the heart of the camp provides shade in the heat of the day, where guests can relax. The experienced staff is always to hand and dinners are typically outside under the stars, on the deck, overlooking the flood plain.
Although walking safaris is the main focus, Musekese is well equipped with a boat for relaxing cruises along the Kafue river and it’s close-by tributary the Lufupa, not to mention some world class fishing. There are viewing blinds well hidden and situated in game rich and scenically attractive areas, allowing guests the opportunity to let the wildlife come to them. A game-drive vehicle with seats and mounts for photographers is also available, although in such a pristine tract of bush roads are limited. If you are fit – there may be an option to walk to Chibembe saltpan. If conditions allow (unlikely in May and June) it may be possible to drive to the southern edge of the Busanga Plains in a full day with a picnic lunch.
Airport Transfer Time: 25 minutes by boat from Lufupa Airstrip
