Kings Pool Camp—Linyanti
Kings Pool Camp is located in the Linyanti Wildlife Reserve, bordering on the
western boundary of Chobe National Park. The camp overlooks the Kings Pool Lagoon
and the Linyanti River. The private reserve is characterized by open grassland,
riverine forest, mixed terminalia woodland and the dry Savuti Channel. The area
is most noted for its very large Elephant populations, which can reach enormous
densities (especially in the winter months). Impala, Lechwe, Kudu, Zebra, Giraffe,
Sitatunga, Sable, Roan, Waterbuck, Buffalo, Bushbuck and the smaller antelope
are all found here.
The major predators, Lion, Leopard, Cheetah, Wild Dog, and Hyena, are resident
and regularly sighted. One of the camp’s highlights are the wildlife sounds.
Very few camps in Africa are noisier! The pre-dawn chorus of bird song starts
the mornings. Hippos grunt and snort all day. Baboons bark and screech, Elephants
wander through camp and trumpet, and Lions often roar around the camp at night!
Accomodation is in nine tented rooms with well-appointed, private bathrooms.
Each room is built on a raised deck. Each bathroom is tiled and has a shower,
toilet and handbasin. There are outside showers, too. The main lounge, pub and
dining room are under thatch and there is an open air “kgotla” for
dining under the stars. There is a pool and a hide.
The private reserve borders on Chobe National Park, but the activities here
are not limited to the rules and regulations of Chobe. We can therefore offer
game drives in open 4x4 vehicles, night drives and walks. In addition, the lodge
has a double decker boat which cruises the Linyanti River, offering wonderful
opportunities to view game and birds from the water when water levels allow.
There are also a number of great hides in the area where guests can view wildlife
peacefully. The highlight is the underground hide overlooking a waterhole. Guests
can enjoy wildlife viewing close up at toenail level from the safety of the
hide.
