Deception Valley Campsite
Central Kalahari Game Reserve, Botswana
The six campsites in the dense bush near Deception Valley offer privacy and are cheaper than others in the CKGR.
Why you'll love it here
- The campsites are in the north-eastern part of the park and are convenient if you want to explore Deception Valley.
- The six campsites are quite close together; only campsites 1 and 2, with their own access track, offer the most privacy.
- All the campsites are in dense bush, so you get less of a sense of wide open space, but they are cheaper than most others in the park.
Your accommodation
The Deception Valley Campsites are managed by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks (DWNP).
What this place offers
Dusche (kalt)
Lagerfeuerstelle
There is a long-drop toilet and a bucket shower, but no running water. You therefore have to bring enough water for cooking and showering yourself.
The shower may be in need of repair or the bucket for showering may have holes or be missing. It is best to bring a solar shower so you are well prepared.
What you can do here
Game Drive auf eigene Faust
Gut für Vogelbeobachtung
Sterne beobachten

Confusingly, the Deception Campsites are not directly in Deception Valley – the Kori Campsites are. Even so, the Deception Valley Campsites are a good base for exploring the famous river valley.
Deception Valley Campsites are about 40 kilometres east of Matswere Gate.
