Watch zebras and antelopes on a long loop near the Black Pools
South Gate, Botswana
Explore the long loop near the Black Pools to see zebras, hartebeest and wildebeest in their natural habitat.
What you can experience here
Drive the long loop near the Black Pools and experience the vast landscapes that open up towards the south and merge into a wide floodplain. This region is a paradise for plains game such as zebras, hartebeest and wildebeest.
Zebras prefer the open areas of this region, as they can spot predators like lions and hyenas early here. In the event of an attack they flee in tight formation, with their black and white stripes probably helping them to recognise each other even in the dark and in the swirling dust. Also keep an eye out for the distinctive termite mounds in the landscape. With a bit of luck you can see cheetahs here, using the mounds to search for prey from an elevated position.
Start your drive at the South Gate and enjoy an unforgettable safari on the long loop near the Black Pools.
