Old Hunters route (Botswana)

[Okkie Van Wyk]

Hello you all

Have some one done the old hunting route in the eastern part of Botswana up to Kasane ?
I am planning a trip to Liuwa in Zambia. +- 4500Km round trip via the Hunting route in Bots and would like some more info on the route

And if you are interested to join us we can make a plan the more Luxes the more fun

Hi Okkie,

I assume you're talking about "Hunters Road"? Was there a few years ago. A very popular spot is Kazuma Pan, but I think you'll have to get there early in the morning to get a nice spot. (S18.37629 E25.51450)

We saw roan antelope, sable and elephants. If you're lucky you can see or hear lions as well.

More to the south is hunting concession area, public not allowed in there, but further north you can bush camp wherever you want. Maybe over December it will not be a problem.

Be careful in the wet season for cotton soil! Mud tyres, diff locks etc are useless in those conditions.

Cheers,

C

Dont want to burst your bubble, maar soos ek verstaan is die hunters road gesluit deur die manne wat die konsessie het.
