Neighbourhood information

The lure of wild Africa is felt as you drive into the north-eastern corner of Namibia. Once called the Caprivi Strip and later the Caprivi region before claiming its full African heritage, the Zambezi region is a step into the heart of the continent. Zambezi Mubala Lodge is nestled on the bank of the mighty Zambezi River, a short boat drive from our Zambezi Mubala Camp. The lodge is located 40 km east of Katima Mulilo, in the Caprivi strip.
