Description |
|
|
| Come
and experience the mystical Kalahari at Kanana Wilderness
where the land stretches as far as the eye can see and
the Bushmen have stalked game for untold generations.
Our vast Private Game Reserve covers over 60 000 acres.
All the creatures of the Kalahari can be found here
including large herds of eland, giraffe, zebra and gemsbok,
predators such as leopard, cheetah and wild dog, nocturnals
such as aardvark and bat eared fox, birds such as the
bateleur , kori bustard and secretary birds, reptiles
such as leopard tortoise and snakes and a healthy and
growing white rhino population of which sightings can
almost be guaranteed.
Motswiri Lodge is in the middle of
the Reserve and offers luxury tented accommodation overlooking
Seribe Pan in the shade of old leadwood trees.
It is said that “Africa always brings something
new”. In the case of Kanana Wilderness the something
new has been waiting for you for thousands of years!
