Nkasa Lupala Tented Lodge is an eco-conscious accommodation situated on the banks of the Kwando-Linyanti river system in Namibia's Zambezi Region (formerly Caprivi). Located within the Nkasa Lupala National Park (previously known as Mamili), the lodge represents a successful joint venture between the private sector and the Wuparo Conservancy, operating under the award-winning Namibian conservancy program supported by IRDNC and WWF.
The lodge is part of the Wild Waters Lodges group, a sustainable tourism-oriented company that operates three award-winning properties. Through its operations, the lodge helps fund wildlife protection and preservation while supporting economic independence in local communities.
Situated in a unique wetland paradise, the property features elevated tented accommodations powered by solar energy, including specialized Honeymoon and Family tents. The main lodge area boasts a spacious lounge and dining facility on a raised deck, offering panoramic views of the channel and floodplains.
The unfenced location allows for exceptional wildlife viewing opportunities, with regular sightings of elephant herds, buffalo, lions, leopards, hyenas, and occasionally wild dogs. The area is also a haven for bird enthusiasts, with over 400 recorded species. Guests can participate in various activities including game drives in both Nkasa Lupala and Mudumu National Parks, sundowner boat cruises, mokoro trips, and guided walks.
The lodge's strategic location provides convenient access to regional attractions, being 75 km from Kongola, 130 km from Katima Mulilo, and 320 km from Victoria Falls. It exemplifies responsible tourism while offering visitors an authentic African wilderness experience.
