Mudumu National Park

Overview

Mudumu is a National Park in Caprivi Region in north-eastern Namibia and covers an area of 737 square kilometer. One of the five national parks in the area, Mudumu National Park’s main draw is its pristine environment that flourishes when the rains come. Located on the Kwando River floodplain of the Zambezi region, the park is bordered by Botswana to the west and surrounded by communal area conservancies. With abundant wildlife and home to a number of large predators, such as lions and leopards, the park makes for some delightfully wild exploring. Large herds of elephants roam the park and, with over 430 bird species inhabiting the area, there is always something new to see. In recent years, giraffes, eland and the majestic sable antelope have been reintroduced to the park which only adds to the wealth of animals on display.

The Drier and cooler winter Season of May to October is the best for wildlife viewing when it less hot in the middle of the day. However, the park and Namibia in general is a year round destination.
