The Khwai River
The Khwai River is a picturesque region characterised by tall evergreen trees lining a wide floodplain. It is situated to the north-eastern tip of Moremi Game Reserve, and has superb consistency and distinctive species of predator and prey. A large pride of lion are often seen hunting buffalo and elephant, whilst leopard sightings are steady. Birdlife such as saddle-billed storks, wattled cranes, and many species of kingfishers and bee-eaters are common, and this is another great area for African Painted Dogs (wold dogs).
Being outside of Moremi and Chobe, walking safaris and night drives are permitted and are offered by the lodges and camps as part of their regular activities. Some of the Khwai camps also offer boating and/or mokoro activities, so the range on offer is excellent. Khwai also hosts some of the best value for money camps in the country, from entry level to luxury, and this is why we often include at least two nights here on our itineraries.
