CAMP KALAHARI, MAKGADIKGADI SALT PANS
/ BOTSWANA ACCOMMODATION

The Makgadikgadi Salt Pans have a lunar landscape but in the Summer months which is between December to March it is transformed into great sheets of water, which attract a spectacular array of water birds and trigger dramatic migrations of wildebeest and zebra.

Nestled among the palms and acacias on Hyena Island, the Camp Kalahari, is situated on the edge of the famous salt pans and adjacent to the Makgadikgadi National Park, which provides for a perfect base to explore this unique and changing region of Botwana in Southern Africa.

Traditionally built using local craftsmen and their knowledge, the Camp Kalahari offers a unique and relaxing environment, combining Western comforts with the flair and colors of the African continent.

The main complex of the Camp Kalahari consists of a thatched library, a comfortable lounge and dining area, allowing one to relax and savor the serenity and peace of this charming area. In the heat of the day guests are invited to relax or to take a dip in the plunge pool.

Activities

Each season in the Makgadikgadi area has its own particular beauty. During the summer when the rain has arrived the pans come to life, the birds and vegetation blossom, and the unique migration can be observed.

During the winter months, the pans dry up which is the reason why the large migrations leave. The true desert animals remain in this area. During the day, guests have the opportunity to explore the pans, either by vehicle or by bike to visit the archaelogical sites of stone age tools or just to see infinity and the curve of the earth.

In both seasons night drives are a fascinating opportunity to see shy nocturnal desert species, whilst during the day one can visit historical sites such as Chapmans and Greens Baobab.
