The park was initially gazetted as a Game Reserve in 1941, and was declared a National Park in 1972. It is located in a district of the same name (Lavushimanda), with the South Luangwa National Park in the neighbouring Mpika District.

    Lusenga Plain National Park

    Lusenga Plain National Park is a national park in Kawambwa District, Luapula Province of Zambia, situated to the south-east of Lake Mweru and on the western bank of the Kalungwishi River. Once rich in large game animals, the Park was neglected and wildlife numbers declined, but in recent years there have been improvements including the restocking of some animals and provision of Park staff and infrastructure, such as wildlife scouts and an improved access road. Lusenga Plain National Park is particularly rich in birdlife.

    Mweru Wantipa National Park

    Lake Mweru Wantipa or Mweru-wa-Ntipa meaning "muddy lake" (also called 'Mweru Marsh') is a lake and swamp system in the Northern Province of Zambia. It has been regarded in the past as something of mystery, displaying fluctuations in water level and salinity which were not entirely explained by variation in rainfall levels; it has been known to dry out almost completely. This is compounded by its remoteness and it not receiving the same attention from geographers and geologists as its larger and more accessible neighbours, Lake Tanganyika, 25 km east, and Lake Mweru, 40 km west, with which its name is sometimes confused.

    Nsumbu National Park

    Located on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, Africa's second-deepest lake, Nsumbu offers a unique combination of terrestrial wildlife and aquatic activities. Visitors can see elephants, buffalo, and various antelopes along the lake, while also enjoying fishing and snorkeling in the pristine waters, known for their endemic cichlid fish.
