Set within the wooded landscapes and ravines of Bwabwata National Park, this region offers a very different experience to the open plains typically associated with safari. It forms part of the vast Kavango-Zambezi (KAZA) Transfrontier Conservation Area, spanning Namibia, Angola, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and Botswana, where wildlife moves freely across borders.
Walking Safari
What to expect
Morning walks begin at sunrise, usually around 06:00, and last between two to three hours. Led by an expert guide and accompanied by an armed ranger, these walks offer a more intimate way to experience the bush.
The focus is on the finer details often missed from a vehicle; reading animal tracks, observing birdlife, and learning about local plant species and their traditional uses.
While sightings of big game such as elephant and buffalo are possible, they are never guaranteed. Antelope species including impala, lechwe, kudu, sable, and roan may also be encountered in the floodplains and wooded areas.
The pace is unhurried. Walks are quiet and immersive, with frequent stops to listen, observe, and fully take in the surroundings rather than moving quickly from one point to the next.
What sets this experience apart is its sense of space and authenticity; a true bush encounter, far from crowds, vehicles, and the presence of other lodges in this part of the park.
