Leopard
Lodge is a secluded, family-run game lodge on
the banks of the Kafue River in a game management
area surrounded by Zambia’s Kafue National
Park.
Leopard Lodge consists of five luxury,
individually thatched, brick-built chalets, a
restaurant and bar plus six campsites should you
prefer to ‘rough it’. The chalet beds
are dressed with 100% percale cotton linen –
an absolute treat after a busy day in the bush! |

Experience the breath-taking
views from the ‘top-of-the-hill’ which
also overlooks the National Park. The plains stretch
for miles and are home to many species of wildlife.
Game-viewing can be safely done whilst taking
a leisurely walk or on a day/night game drive.
The resident leopard and lion have been sighted
within the camp catching impala, puku and bushbuck
which is quite an eye-opener.
Enjoy the many great activities Leopard Lodge
offers. Relax with a sundowner on the deck or
on a late afternoon boat cruise watching the vast
bird-life going about their business and the fish-eagles
as they swoop down to retrieve their next meal.
Fishing for pike, bream, catfish and barbell (to
mention a few) is therapeutic and peaceful (until
the ‘big’ one bites!) Canoeing is
therapeutic and brings your inner soul close to
nature.
Leopard Lodge, situated on the banks of the Kafue
River in Zambia, is an experience not to be missed.
The Kafue River is perennial and is beautifully
clean. The fishing is excellent (ask the fish
eagles!)
A comprehensive refurbishment programme was undertaken
during 2006/2007, which saw Leopard Lodge emerging
as a secluded, charming and well-equipped camp
with glorious views of the Kafue River and plains.
As you might expect, activities focus on fishing,
boat cruises, bird watching & game viewing
on foot or by vehicle (incl. night drives). Some
4km from the camp is a natural hot spring, while
the hill behind affords views over the surrounding
area. There are also future plans for scenic flights,
micro lights, sunset cruises & a mini health
spa.
The minimum recommended stay is 4 nights at the
camp; the minimum nights to be booked is three
nights.
Leopard Lodge is committed to conservation, protection
of the environment and the creation of opportunities
for the people from the local area. All building
has been done by local craftsmen. |
