Nyika National Park

Nyika National Park is an important natural resource not only for Zambia, but also for the whole region. It provides a unique opportunity for both economic development and the conservation of the natural environment. The region is rich in wildlife, including several species of antelope, wildebeest, zebra and buffalo. It also hosts a wide variety of birdlife, as well as flora that are unique to the area. Nyika National Park is an important source of tourism income in Zambia, with visitors travelling from all over the world to appreciate its biodiversity. The park's altitude and location create favourable conditions for the many species of plants and animals that are protected within its boundaries. The area is part of a key habitat corridor, connecting protected areas in Zambia and Malawi. This makes it an important site for the conservation of species that move across borders and rely on connectivity between national parks. Nyika National Park is a major success story for both countries, demonstrating how sustainable development can be achieved while still preserving biodiversity.
