13th Borehole offers exciting sightings of lions, hyenas and colourful bird species against the backdrop of the red Kalahari dunes.

What you can experience here

The 13th Borehole waterhole is right next to the road, which splits some distance before you reach it. Take the northern road to get to the waterhole. On one side of the waterhole there are several trees and bushes framing it and providing shelter for animals. There is no shade when you park, however. Behind the waterhole you can see the typical red Kalahari dunes in the distance. In the rainy season the red colour only shimmers through in patches, as the dunes are covered with green grasses.
