Lochinvar National Park

Lochinvar National Park, National park in Southern Province, Zambia.

Lochinvar National Park covers 428 square kilometres on the south bank of the Kafue River in Southern Province, Zambia. Its northern edge follows the river, while wooded hills rise in the south. The park takes in a large part of the southern Kafue Flats floodplain, including Chunga Lagoon, and drier woodland dominated by termite mounds and Faidherbia albida and Combretum trees.

The area functioned as a private ranch before becoming a national park in 1972. This transformation represented an important step toward establishing wildlife protection zones in Zambia.

The park takes its name from Lochinvar, a loch in Galloway, Scotland, after which the original ranch was named. On Sebanzi Hill visitors can see the remains of a Neolithic settlement and an Iron Age village, along with caves and an ancient baobab.

A four-wheel drive vehicle is necessary to navigate the park, particularly when heavy rains create impassable conditions. Planning a visit during the dry season provides easier access and more reliable travel conditions.

The park harbors the rare Kafue lechwe, an antelope species found almost nowhere else besides this region. These animals are specially adapted to wetland grasslands and gather in large herds across the park's flatlands.
