Auchterlonie picnic site
Auob Trockenfluss, Botswana
The picnic site is perched on top of a dune and offers shady picnic spots, toilets and a lovely view across the dunes.
What you can experience here
The Auchterlonie picnic site is perfect for a break in the middle of the wild Kalahari. The site is elevated with views over the dunes and the riverbed, so you have a good view of the surroundings even from your picnic table. There are shady picnic spots and toilets as well as a small museum that tells you more about the history of the early settlers in the Kalahari.
Auchterlonie is in an area roamed by lions and cheetah – so you need to be particularly careful here, especially when getting out of your vehicle. With a bit of luck you can spot one of these predators in the surrounding dunes.
