Open
guest area, a secluded hide, refreshing swimming pool and 20
‘meru styled’ tents comple the lodge which lies
beneath a forest of sturdy knob thorns.
It is within these tree tops that the largest colony of white
back vultures occurs.
The lodge is unique for several reasons and amongst these is
the fact that it is situated within a game rich reserve affording
the guests wonderful sightings between our open landrover safaris
into the Chobe and boat cruises along the Chobe River.
THE CAMP
The camp perimeter is fenced to keep the elephant from moving
through the camp, instead now they move around the camp boundary,
along their well worn paths to and from the Chobe River. Your
tent also ensures that you are able to hear the multitude of
night sounds as you drift away with vivid thoughts of the experiences
of your day on safari.
Each of the tents features twin beds, ensuite shower and toilet,
mini safe and fan.
ACTIVITIES
At Elephant Valley we have found that a morning cruise along
the Chobe River provides a couple of distinct advantages they
include the following; During the morning the river is distinctly
less busy with fewer boats. This also permits a longer experience,
assuming that sightings kept us busy, and we do not have to
cut the trip short to get back before sunset. It does also permit
a greater length of the river to be explored.
In the afternoons we have found that the Chobe National Park
is conversely less busy and we are able to enjoy a sundowner
along the river to capture the sunset on camera. It is also
during the late afternoon that game becomes most active.
