Kasanka National Park is a small but fascinating park that has four rivers and
eight lakes flowing into the Bengweulu Wetland. It offers
brilliant angling opportunities, and bird watchers come
here to see vast numbers of birds, not usually found in
Southern Africa. One is the rare and peculiar looking
Shoebill Stork, which resembles the extinct Dodo. The
swamp forests of Kasanka, also harbour the rare antelope,
the Sitatunga, which only lives in wetland areas and is
rarely seen. You may also witness the spectacle of
millions of fruit bats coming to roost. Although the
park itself is breathtaking there are other attractions
including the David Livingstone Memorial. It is here that
the great explorer ended his final journey. The
Nsala Caves contain some of Africa's best rock paintings.
The most ancient of these strange artworks is thought to
be 20,000 years old. Another of these attractions, and
certainly not the least is the Kundalila Falls.
