The Parque Nacional do Luengue-Luiana (Luengue-Luiana National Park) lies in the far south-east of Angola, along the borders with Namibia and Zambia, and covers about 22 610 km². It was created in 2011 by Law No. 38/11 and is managed by the Instituto Nacional da Biodiversidade e Áreas de Conservação (INBAC), the national biodiversity and conservation areas agency.
The park is part of the Kavango-Zambezi Transfrontier Conservation Area (KAZA), which brings together Angola, Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe and links areas such as the Okavango Delta and Victoria Falls. It protects savannah, chanas (seasonally flooded grasslands), woodland and the Cuando and Luiana rivers.
Since the war, the wildlife has been returning. There are records of elephants, buffalo, lions, leopards, antelope, hippos and crocodiles, and in 2020 Angola began monitoring elephant migration in the park.
This is a remote destination with very little tourist infrastructure. You get there on a 4x4 expedition, such as those run by Raid Okavango, and with a guide. If you are looking for nature without crowds, it is one of the wildest places in the country.
