Listen to the sounds of hippopotamus on an evening game drive along the river

Experience an evening game drive along the Khwai River to watch elephants and other wildlife in a natural river landscape.

The track leads north-east from North Gate along the Khwai. Although there are several lodges on the other side of the river, you will hardly notice them on your safari along the Khwai River. This route takes you through an area where leopard and lion are at home and where elephants frequently walk from the forest on one side of the track down to the river. In the river itself you can watch hippopotamus slowly coming out of the water to graze.

From the campsite at North Gate you do not have to drive far to see these impressive animals in the river landscape. As you are on this bank in Moremi Game Reserve, remember to return to camp in time for sunset, as night drives are not permitted.
