Camp Kalahari
Cozy camp on Brown Hyaena Island
Camp Kalahari is located within a 400,000 hectare private game reserve, nestled amidst acacia and mokolwane palm trees on Brown Hyena Island. In addition to the rare brown hyena, spoon-eared foxes, aardvarks, and aardwolves occasionally scamper across the salt, and elephants roam the area. From November to April, huge herds of zebra and wildebeest pass by with the rains, followed by big cats and wild dogs. During the dry season, from May to October, haze settles over the salt, and the sun sparkles off the Makgadikgadi pans.
CK is a cozy and affordable camp. It features 12 Meru-style tents with Moroccan kilims and four-poster beds, as well as en-suite bathrooms with indoor and outdoor showers and complete privacy. For families or groups, there are fenced-off areas with two tents with connecting bathrooms. The main area consists of a lounge with a library and a dining tent with a long table. The thatched swimming pool is a refreshing spot on a hot afternoon - sometimes Ellie pops in for a quick drink...
Camp Kalahari offers a variety of activities depending on the season: bush walks with the Zu/’hoasi Bushmen through the desert, game drives and night drives, horse riding safaris (for an additional charge, also for multi-day trips) and exciting quad bike rides across the salt-encrusted pans.
