Baines’ Baobabs Campsite
Nxai Pan National Park, Botswana
Baines’ Baobabs offers you secluded campsites without water, but with spectacular views of the baobab trees and the Kudiakam Pan.
Why you'll love it here
- Stay close to the iconic Baines' Baobabs and experience the magic of sunrise over the wide, silent salt pan.
- Enjoy the feeling of complete seclusion among ancient baobabs, far from any civilisation.
- From Campsite 1 you have an uninterrupted view of the famous Baines' Baobabs.
Your accommodation
The three campsites are not directly next to Baines’ Baobabs, but are spread out around Kudiakam Pan, which surrounds the famous baobabs. To reach the campsites you have to cross the pan, which is only possible when it is completely dry. Otherwise there is a high risk of getting stuck on the pan.
The locations of the individual campsites are as follows:
Campsite 1 offers a direct view of Baines’ Baobabs and is particularly popular because of the beautiful view. Campsite 2 and Campsite 3 are further away along the pan and offer quiet, secluded spots in the middle of the vast landscape.
