About Kundelungu

Kundelungu National Park, established in 1970, lies in the Haut-Katanga Province of southeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo, on the Kundelungu Plateau at elevations of 1,000–1,500 metres. Covering approximately 7,600 square kilometres, the park encompasses a vast highland plateau of miombo woodland, grassland, and gallery forest, bisected by the headwaters of the Lufira River and its tributaries. The park is relatively little-known internationally but holds significant biological importance as part of the Congolian miombo belt, and protects the spectacular Lofoi Falls—at 384 metres, considered one of Africa's highest waterfalls—within its boundaries.
