Kalahari Plains Camp is situated in a remote part of the diverse and productive Central Kalahari Game Reserve (CKGR) and offers some of the best summer (November - April) wildlife viewing opportunities in Africa. This part of the CKGR offers year round viewing of key desert-adapted wildlife. Summer is spectacular with huge concentrations of plains game followed by predators such as lion and cheetah.
The camp is beautifully situated on an immense pan just 20km from Deception Valley and comprises 10 en-suite canvas units with a sleep-out above each one from which to enjoy the night skies. The main area with lounge, dining area and central bar also has a separate swimming pool and deck area. The tents and main area are all raised off the ground to catch the breeze and take in the sweeping, spacious views across the Kalahari.
Game drives are the main activity, with two day drives per day. Guests can also participate in a guided walk in the area led by a Bushman guide.
