K alahari Plains Camp
Kalahari Plains Camp, overlooking an immense grassy and fertile pan with
endless horizons and beautiful skies, is raised off the ground to catch the breeze
and take in sweeping views across the Kalahari by day and star-filled skies by
night. Solar power provides electricity and hot water, and innovative insulated
canvas walls and roof keep the temperatures inside comfortable. The lounge
and dining area, also raised, are perfect for watching wildlife in front of camp.
Endless skies,
ancient cultures,
abundant summers
and insightful
winters.
Highlights
The Central Kalahari Game Reserve is famed for its outstanding wildlife. This
region offers some of the best summer wildlife viewing in Africa; the desert springs to life attracting vast herds of antelope
(principally springbok, gemsbok, red hartebeest and blue wildebeest) followed by abundant predators – including the
legendary black-maned Kalahari lion and cheetah, offering perhaps Botswana’s best viewing of this species. The unique
culture and traditional lifestyles of the San Bushman people are celebrated here by San staff from the area.
