I have enjoyed two hunts and some extended time at the northern hunting area of Block B, Niassa Game Reserve Northern Mozambique. (Will be back this season after a Zim Ele hunt ).
This reserve is roughly the size of Wales and its northern boarder is with Tanzania.
The main access to the eastern hunting areas of the reserve are to fly from Johannesburg to the coastal town of Pemba which is the capital of the Cabo Delgado Province of Moz. Then either drive or fly into the interior from there.
To Block B www.kambakosafaris.com area, the drive is around ten hours or a two and a half hour flight by Cessna.
This area is made up of dry Miombo woodland with some open flays, Bamboo and Jesse thickets.
No Swamps.
The main River system in this area is the Lugenda.
Main species are;
Elephant (Reserve has set a minimum 60lbs tusk limit) No export to US yet.
Lion, Reserve has set a six year old minimum. Niassa Lion are quite bold and can be stalked when at a bait.
Buffalo, Block B has highest recorded number of Buff for Niassa reserve hunting ares.
Leopard, Not as big as Lowvelt cats but similar in size to Zambezi cats. The beauty is that you can get them on bait during the day in this remote area.
Eland, Just a great hunt for these huge Antelope.
Sable, (Roosevelt)great in this area.

A 45+" Niassa Buff.

Understandably due to the remoteness of this area and the Niassa Reserve's restricted Quota the hunting here is slightly more expensive than some other areas but the difference is visible.

This is an area for those that have dreamed of a "classic old Africa styled Safari".

You can contact me for any other info for Niassa area Safaris.


View from one of Kambako's camps.



Away from main camp for a night or two is a great option.


From this lookout we watched our trackers searching for Eland spoor, only to see a lion pass the same spot shortly after.
