THE CHITABE WALKING TRAIL

Chitabe Camp and Chitabe Trails Camp offers a two night Chitabe Walking Trail experience for those who want to be closest to nature. Guests will be accompanied by an armed and licensed accredited walking guide who will take them on the informative and adventurous walk through the grasslands and woodlands of the Okavango Delta. The party will sleep out at two of the hides which are located in the Chitabe concession. Both hides accommodate guests on elevated platforms and each guest will sleep in the hide under a mosquito net, but still being able to gaze up towards the spectacular African night sky. Long drop toilets and hot bucket showers will provide the ablution facilities. Dinners at the hide will be home cooked style meals on the open camp fire. Beautifully appointed dining tables and chairs will help complete the dining experience.

The two hides at Chitabe are located in very different habitats. One hide is situated on the edge of a floodplain which often contains water and enables one to see the wet side of the Okavango and the other hide is within the woodland on the edge of an extensive pan system, which often sees an abundance of elephant activity. The walking trail experience allows guests to get their feet on the ground and really feel, smell and touch Africa. We will walk for several hours a day, but it is not a strenuous walk and can be enjoyed by almost all guests. The absolute silence, except for the nocturnal sounds of the Okavango's insects and wildlife which one can experience by sleeping "out in the bush" is a magical one that all guests will mark as one of the highlights of their African safari. Guests can spend the first and/or their last night back at Chitabe Camp or Chitabe Trails Camp.
