The Lunda Nkwambi GCA Hunting Block 

• This large hunting block is renowned for its remoteness, natural beauty, array of wildlife, and diverse ecosystems.
• The Lunda Nkwambi GCA is more than 300,000 acres of unfenced game hunting paradise.
• Lunda Nkwambi is situated in the western part of Tanzania and is less populated than other regions, making it the perfect region for hunters to enjoy an authentic African hunting safari.
• The concession features a variety of landscapes, including woodlands, savannas, and river systems. These, in turn, support a wide range of habitats for a variety of both African plains game and dangerous game species.
• The area is home to many notable species, including members of Africa’s Big 5, as well as many antelope species. The area supports about 70% of the huntable species in Tanzania.
• The Lunda Nkwambi GCA is seen as being one of the best hunting blocks that Tanzania has to offer, with the overall hunting experience that it offers hunters in the region being exceptional. For hunters, it provides a memorable hunting experience, with the combination of its size, rich biodiversity, and relatively low human population all being major draw-cards.
• The area is also involved in several conservation efforts to ensure the ongoing sustainability of wildlife. These include structured conservation management through TAWA, community involvement in wildlife management, ongoing monitoring of wildlife populations, and various anti-poaching initiatives.
