Seasons and Climate of South Luangwa
November and December
Open: Nkwali, Robin’s House, Luangwa Safari House
The start of the rains – usually in sporadic storms and these are the months of rebirth. Many animals give birth and the Valley becomes a nursery! After the first big storm there is a flush of emerald green grass and the leaves on the mopane trees burst forth. The flowers start to push through the ground and as the storms increase in number so does the growth.
By December we have a valley vibrant with growth. Christmas therefore is a wonderful time – with fantastic storms, lots of youngsters about and the ground with flowers and green grass.
