A tidy, shaded farm campsite at a plant nursery just south of Kabwe. A calm and convenient overnight stop on the Great North Road rather than a destination.
About
Palm Farm is a working plant nursery a short way off the Great North Road south of Kabwe, and its campsite is a lawn under mature shade trees beside the nursery beds. In the evening you can walk the farm paths between palms, fruit trees and roses, and the Fig Tree Café, a well-known coffee stop, is about 2 km up the road. It is a quiet place rather than a destination in itself, best used as a first or last night out of Lusaka or a break on the long drive north. The farm is about 200 m off the tar, so any car can get in. Call or WhatsApp ahead, as the nursery is closed on Sundays and after 17:00.
