Directly adjacent to The Victoria Falls on the Zambian side of the Zambezi River, at 66 sq km Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park is the smallest national park in Zambia and Africa's Eden. Stretching from Batoka Gorge the park runs for about 12 km above The Victoria Falls, along the Zambezi River.
Perhaps the most accessible national park in Africa’s Eden, Mosi-oa-Tunya is positioned between the town of Livingstone and The Victoria Falls itself. The size and proximity of the park to the primary hub towns of Livingstone and Victoria Falls make it an ideal destination for a short safari experience. Game drives, walking safaris and cruises on the Zambezi River alongside the park are all on offer.
While Africa’s main predators are absent, the Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park is a great location to see a wide variety of other wildlife. Visitors can see migratory elephant herds (during drier spells), giraffe, waterbuck, buffalo, impala, wildebeest, zebra, warthogs among many others, as well as the endangered white rhino, which is heavily protected.
The park also contains some of the historical sites left by the first European settlers, including a cemetery and the Old Drift Crossing Point.
