National Parks
There are three national parks to explore while on holiday in
Vic Falls - the Victoria Falls National Park, the Mosi-oa-Tunya
National Park on the Zambian side of the falls and, about 120 miles
(193km) further south, the Hwange National Park. These parks
feature a vast selection of wildlife including elephant, buffalo,
giraffe, zebra and various antelope; there are also occasional
sightings of lion and leopard. There are a number of operators in
Vic Falls town offering safaris to these national parks, as well as
elephant-back safaris on Nakavango Estate and the 'walking with
lions' experience at Masuwe Estate.
