In-Depth Information
If you are coming to the park independently remember that you need to be well set-up
with a fully-equipped, high-clearance 4WD, and your accommodation prebooked. Also,
get advice regarding the state of the roads into the park and make sure you've got maps
that cover the area (and GPS); they should be supplemented by a map of the park, usually
available at Mano Gate and detailing where you're allowed to drive.
Coming from the north of North Luangwa by car, you can reach Mano Gate from the
Great North Road near the village of Luana, about 60km north of Mpika - it's well sign-
posted. The road can be rough, rarely travelled and drops steeply down the Muchinga Es-
carpment into the Luangwa Valley.
