The Trip-Finder, January 1998 Zambia Going on Safari in Kafue National Park The Route: A classic African safari: five days of traveling by foot or four-wheel drive through one of Africa’s largest and least populated national parks, observing hippos, lions, and yellow-backed duikers. When to go: July to September Difficulty: Easy Travel advisory: Zambia’s national park system does not require that vehicles stay on the roads. Your driver may choose to take a bone-jarring “shortcut” through dense grasslands that grow twice as high as the car. High/low points: Being in the only safari caravan you’ll see the entire week. Realizing that both elephants and rhinos have been completely poached out of Kafue. Copyright 1998, Outside magazine |
