South Luangwa seasons The best time for watching wildlife in South Luangwa National Park is during the dry season, which takes place from July to October. The Luangwa River becomes a gathering place for animals during the dry season, as they emerge from the high-temperature, bush areas in search of the refreshment of the river’s clean water. Some lodges will remain open during the ‘Emerald Season’ when the rains turn the dry landscape into a lush, green oasis and the birthing season begins. Here are some pros and cons for the wet and dry season. April to October - Dry season Pros: • The thick bush thins out and wildlife is easier to spot. • Animals will gather around the river. • Best time to spot the more elusive species on your list. • Expect bright days and lots of sunshine. • Less chances for malaria, since there are fewer mosquitos.
