MAKGADIKGADI

These salt pans cover 6,200 sq mi (16,057.9 km2) in the Kalahari basin and form the bed of the ancient Lake Makgadikgadi, which evaporated many millennia ago. Archeological recovery in the Makgadikgadi Pan has revealed the presence of prehistoric man through abundant finds of stone tools; some of these tools have been dated sufficiently early to establish their origin as earlier than the era of Homo sapiens. Pastoralists herded grazing livestock here when water was more plentiful earlier in the Holocence.

The lowest place in the basin is Sua Pan with an elevation of 2,920 feet

MOREMI GAME RESERVE

The Reserve offers the opportunity to explore not only in 4×4’s but on foot and by mokoro – a dug-out canoe, hewn from either ebony or sausage tree, and poled by your personal guide. Although, today most of the mekoro (plural of mokoro), are made from fibreglass, thus helping to preserve the magnificent, and old, trees of the area. 

Game viewing is at its peak from July to October, when seasonal pans dry up and the wildlife concentrates on the permanent water. From October until the start of the rains in late November or early December, the weather can be extremely hot.

SAVUTI

founded at the heart of the park, Savuti boasts most of Chobe Region species, except for water-loving antelope. it is best known for its residents populations of predators, particularly lion, cheetah and hyena.

geographically, Savuit is an area of many curiosities. one of its greatest mysteries is the Savuti channel itself, which has over the past 100 years inexplicably dried up and recommenced its flow several times. attributed by some plate tectonic, this irregular water flow results in numerous dead trees lining the channel… these trees germinate and grow when the channel is dry. but they drown when the channel flows again

The Central Kalahari Game Reserve is presently inhabited by traditional hunter-gatherers belonging to the Basarwa (San) and Bakgalakgadi tribes,  Although there are large open grasslands, Fossil riverbeds found in Deception and Okwa valleys, and in the Khutse Game Reserve, mark the positions of rivers which once drained into the ancient Lake Makgadikgadi.
