Overview of Kalahari Plains Camp Botswana, Kalahari
Nestled near the secluded Deception Valley in Botswana’s Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Kalahari Plains Camp serves as the perfect starting point to uncover the hidden treasures of this rarely explored yet immensely fulfilling locale. Constructed from canvas and timber, this entirely solar-powered camp provides exhilarating morning and afternoon game drives in open vehicles, guided walks to unveil the intriguing mysteries of desert life, and some unexpectedly remarkable bird watching.

Many of the staff come from the local San/Bushman clans and are eager to share insights about their unique culture as you explore the area. Stay vigilant for the Kalahari’s rich array of herbivores – gemsbok, giraffe, wildebeest, eland – along with the predators that trail in their wake. Game viewing is exceptional all year round, but it reaches its peak in the early summer months when the rains transform the desert into a lush landscape, drawing in not only thousands of springbok but also the cheetahs, lions, and leopards that hunt them.
