Busanga Bush Camp is located in the centre of a wildlife paradise, in the extreme north of the Kafue National Park which is 22 500 km² and one of the largest National Parks in Africa. Busanga Plains is one of Zambia’s most significant wetland resources and one of the few areas in the world that remain untouched by development and human activity.
The Camp is in the north-western section of the Busanga and is about as ‘wild’ as you can get in today's world: an unfenced mosaic of expansive grassy seasonal floodplains and “dambos” (open grassy areas that sometimes will fill up with rainwater). This camp is perfectly situated for some of the best lion viewing in Africa.
It caters for 8 guests in 4 well-appointed tents with wall-to-wall views of the spectacular wildlife that frequents the plain in front of the camp. Activities include game drives, walking safaris and night drives, led by qualified guides who are extremely knowledgeable about the area and its wildlife. For those interested in birding, the park boasts 491 species, including endemics such as Chaplin’s Barbet.
The Plains are also home to hundreds of red lechwe, ubiquitous puku, stately roan and the diminutive oribi. Lichtenstein’s hartebeest, herds of wildebeest, zebra and buffalo make for a full set of antelope. This wealth of game on the plains is also a big attraction for predators, including wild dog, cheetah and large prides of lion.
