Situated around the Etosha Pan with a large variety of animal and bird life, the extensive network of gravel roads affords us the opportunity of accessing even the most remote areas of the park. After lunch, and once it has cooled off a bit, we spend the remainder of the day exploring the parkโ€™s southern area. Keep an eye out for the striking Oryx and Springbok as these are endemic to desert National Parks! Tonightโ€™s camp is situated just outside the parks boundaries, only 10kms from Anderson Gate.  Perhaps a quick dip in the pool or a sun downer on the deck before dinner, followed by a relaxing evening in this interesting bar.

      Today we make our way across the park, keeping a look out for the many different mammals, reptiles, birds and insects in the various regions. As the vegetation types change, so does the animal and bird life that relies on it, and so different sections of the Park offer a variety of different game options. After a full day of game viewing, we spend the evening relaxing at our camp in the north of the park, Namutoni.  After dinner why not head to the waterhole where you can sit and observe the animals may come to drink in the evenings.
