Meno a Kwena Camp

Meno a Kwena Camp is situated on the high cliffs overlooking the dry Boteti river on the very edge of the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park.

Southern Africa's largest remaining zebra and wildebeest herds, dependant on regular drinking water, migrate between the Makgadikgadi and Nxai Pans and the Okavango. Meno a Kwena is situated on these traditional migration routes with plentiful wildlife, especially during the zebra and wildebeest migration. This wildlife followed by their accompanying predators.

During the dry season (May to November) thousands of zebras, elephants and other wildlife come to drink along the riverbed. This can only be described as one of the most productive drinking spots in view of a camp in Southern Africa. Birding is excellent year round but bird varieties increase and breeding starts during the summer months (September to May).
