Mokolwane Camp
Mokolwane camp is a modest, laid-back camp located in one of the largest and largely unexplored regions of the Okavango Delta. It is tucked away in a 200 000-hectare wilderness area in the Xudum concession (NG29), amidst a scattering of Mokolwane palm trees. Mokolwane is a unique little camp, big on adventure and as it is the only camp around for miles, it’s a great place to enjoy stillness and seclusion.
Mokolwane has seven canvas-style tents hidden 10 feet above the ground among shaded bows of fig, jackalberry, ilala palm, and wild mangosteens. Elephants adore it here, with a feast of palm nuts, fruit, and wild figs dripping from these tree giants. Each room has an earthly appeal, with an ensuite bathroom and comfy décor. The main section of the camp has a communal dining area where you can enjoy leisurely meals with spectacular views! Set on the Matsebi river system, you'll be surrounded by trees and enjoy stunning vistas that become emerald when the floodwaters roll in. Mokolwane Camp is open all year, with each season bringing a different kind of wildness. The annual floods arrive in the concession around April or May, and the water remains until the end of September.
