Kapishya Hot Springs Lodge

Top choice in Zambia


Featuring a scenic river location, with nearby hot springs and lush rainforest, this lodge is popular for good reason. The chalets are light and spacious, with wooden decks complete with fireplaces and views and there's a lovely campsite with hot showers and barbecue areas. The pool and hot springs are wonderful spots to unwind. Excellent meals are also available.

They can arrange a number of activities from rafting, mountain-biking, rainforest walks, wildlife drives and trips to see ancient rock-art sites and waterfalls. It's run by Mark Harvey (grandson of Stewart Gore-Browne of Shiwa Ng'andu) along with his wife Mel. They also run the Buffalo Camp in North Luangwa National Park.
