Wildlife Experience

Linyanti Bush Camp is situated within a private reserve bordering Chobe National Park and the Linyanti Marshes, an area renowned for its exceptional wildlife densities and diverse habitats. The permanent water sources attract large concentrations of elephant and buffalo throughout the dry season, while predators including lion, leopard, cheetah and African wild dog are regularly encountered.

The region is particularly well known for its elephant populations, with vast herds moving through the marshlands and surrounding woodlands during the winter months. Birdlife is equally rewarding, with the wetlands attracting a variety of resident and migratory species throughout the year.
