Makgadikgadi Pans Adventure

The Makgadikgadi Pans Adventure ride will start from the Kwa Nokeng Lodge at the Martins Drift Border post where we will spend our 1st night.  Early the next morning we are off to the Pans via, Lethlakane - the entry point into the Makgadigadi Pans.

 

Terrain covered will comprise two-spoor gravel roads and sandy sections prior to entering the pans. From here we will visit Lekhubu Island and make our way through the pans from Ntwetwe South to Ntwetwe North. There are some sandy two-spoor roads between the two pans. 

After an adventure filled day we will arrive at our base camp where the Kwa Nokeng staff will already have set up camp and will be waiting to serve you. The camp is set in the pans surrounded by the beauty of the vast emptiness for as far as the eye can see. After watching a memorable sunset over the pans, the evening is spent around the camp fire with good food and good company. You will fall asleep with only a blanket of stars above your head and your bike beside you. That’s right, we will be camping out in TRUE wilderness style. Of course we can provide tents at your request but why not see the sunrise from your bed?

 

The next morning, after a hearty breakfast, we will head towards the famous Chapman’s & Greens Baobabs. From here we will travel to Gweta to refuel. After lunch we will head south down the Western leg of the pans, stopping over at Gabasadi Island for lunch. We will once again sleep under a blanket of stars on Friday. Saturday morning we will play around the pans a bit before leaving for Kwa Nokeng Lodge where the last night will be spent in Chalets and Luxury tents. We have arranged for the traditional dancers from the Lerala Village to entertain you on your last evening of your adventure.

 

The 5 day adventure should look something like this:
