Chibembe Wildlife Reserve covers about 3,500 unfenced private acres on the east bank of the Luangwa, north of the Nsefu sector, in the area where Norman Carr's walking guests once crossed the river and set out on foot. The rebuilt camp reopened in June 2026 with four tents, booked by one party at a time, and walking is the main point of a stay. Its season runs June through October.
