Shackletons Upper
Zambezi Lodge provides access to 130km of the Upper
Zambezi River, often called ‘God’s Highway’.
Besides the nearby Lozi village of Mwandi, there are
no other Zambian villages or lodges on this vast stretch
of water.
Shackletons is accessible
all year round, even when the upper Zambezi River
floods its banks each year to form the Zambezi floodplains.
Besides the tranquil
waters of the river, Shackletons is flanked by sandy
river banks, reed beds, water lilies, riverine forests,
woodlands and flooded grass plains.
This 130 km stretch
of pristine water and the surrounding area is what
makes Shackletons ideal for:
- Trophy Tigerfishing
- Trophy Bream/Tilapia fishing
- Birding
(over 300 species)
- Trip to the rare Black-Cheeked Lovevirds
- River & sunset cruises
- Swimming

& sponsored by Shackletons)
