Lusaka National Park, National park southeast of Lusaka, Zambia.
Lusaka National Park is a protected area close to the city with woodlands, grasslands, and wetlands. These habitats are home to zebras, antelopes, and numerous bird species.
The area transformed from a former forest reserve into a modern national park, gaining its status in 2011. Official opening came four years later.
The Department of National Parks and Wildlife organizes educational programs for local communities to learn about conservation and regional wildlife management.
The area lies just a few kilometers from the city center and is easy to reach by car. Visitors can choose between guided walking safaris and game drives offered year-round.
The entire park is fully fenced, providing both controlled access for visitors and protection for wildlife. Despite its small size, it serves an important role as a refuge for local animals.
