This park is a mix of nature reserve and a conservation area with people living in it, growing crops, hunting, fishing etc.. And probably because of the scarcity of water this year, they are competing for water at the same water sources. So, we did see a lot of people at the waterfront fishing in the only remaining water stream, hunting for smaller animals and working on their fields with machinery, but didn't see any game during our 48 hours in the park (apart from steenbok, zebra and wildebeest). If you are coming to this park for the landscape, it's great! If you want to see some animals too and be completely in a natural environment, I wouldn't come here... (apart from the price, which is with roughly 75 USD pppn absolutely ridiculous).

We spent three glorious days in the park and can’t recommend it highly enough. If you love the quiet beauty of the bush this is the place to be. We camped at Katoyana campsite. Lovely cs no 1. Hot water showers were bliss. We saw huge herds of wildebeest, zebra, antelope, 12 Wild dog on a kill, a pride of 12 lions on a kill. Our time was awesome. Lots of birds identified too. A must visit park. Reservations required and a good GPS. Wild camped in a forest night before entering the park. Must have 4x4

Pleasant welcome by Mimi and Paul . Deflate tyres to get from bridge/ferry to reception and 4x4 vehicles only

Report Check-In

The bridge looks nearly finished from kalabo otherwise you pay the 80kw pontoon (each way) on entry to Liuwa. It’s a deep sand drive from the pontoon so deflate tyres and into 4wd was needed. Poor tracks but GPS was spot on for location.
Park entry for international should be paid in kwatcha or dollar (2017 issued and 50 or higher notes only) no card facility.
Cold drinks at reception.

Report Check-In

Camping fee is now $25, pontoon 80ZK. They’re building a bridge.

We had stopped for the night just before the reception and entered the park the next morning. The fees for international visitors are so high, that we didn't want to stay longer than 1 night. Our group was the only visitors in the huge park . The roads are very difficult.
