Even the most urban corners of Livingstone hide pockets of nature for those willing to walk. Green spaces like Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park (Victoria Falls Zambian side) and Zambezi River waterfront offer a breathing room between landmarks — and some of the best views you'll find anywhere in the city. Seek out quieter retreats like Livingstone Island for the calm that the busier parks can't offer.
Livingstone is the Zambian gateway to Victoria Falls, a colonial-era town where tree-lined avenues, a world-class museum, and the thundering Zambezi create an unforgettable walking experience. The town offers a more relaxed alternative to the Zimbabwean side.
Roamee Pro, also known as Roamee, offers a free self-guided nature walk route in Livingstone. The audio walking tour can include stops such as Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park (Victoria Falls Zambian side) — a protected natural area showcasing stunning landscapes, diverse wildlife, and well-maintained trails for nature lovers, Zambezi River waterfront — a riverside area above the falls where hippos surface at dusk, elephants cross to islands, and sunset cruises depart nightly, Royal Livingstone Hotel grounds — a colonial-style luxury hotel with manicured gardens where zebra and impala graze freely along the Zambezi riverbank, plus hidden gems like Livingstone Island — accessible during low water season, you can swim at the very edge of the falls in Devil's Pool and Mukuni Village — a traditional Leya village with a chief's palace, offering authentic cultural walking tours.
Use this page as a starting point for a Livingstone walking tour, a free self-guided route, or the Roamee app for Livingstone. Roamee Pro keeps the route flexible so you can follow the stops, skip ahead, or explore nearby streets at your own pace.
Livingstone is known for nature and adventure, but between the busy streets, spaces like Mosi-oa-Tunya National Park (Victoria Falls Zambian side) and Zambezi River waterfront provide a different kind of experience — calmer, greener, and more grounded than a typical sightseeing route. Quieter spots like Livingstone Island provide the kind of rest that the main attractions cannot.
The spray from the falls can drench you even on the Zambian side — bring a waterproof bag for electronics during high water season.
June through August offers comfortable temperatures and good water levels; low water (September-December) allows Devil's Pool access.
