Mogotlho Safari Lodge









Mogotlho Safari Lodge: Our View
Situated in a grove of Camel Thorn trees, overlooking the Khwai River, Mogotlho Safari Lodge is located in a unique, slightly elevated riverbank with beautiful views over the river. The special location of the Mogotlho concession makes it a regular host to elephant, buffalo, lion, leopard, and wild dog. The lodge property is electric fenced to keep the elephant out, but otherwise the wildlife roams freely. This is the perfect location for wildlife photography and provides excellent birding opportunities with good sightings of waders and raptors in the area, among many other species.
Activities in the camp include morning and afternoon game drives and night drives in the Mogotlho Safari Lodge's private concession, and day trips into Moremi Game Reserve. A cultural visit to the Mababe Village can be arranged, as well as guided safari walks within the concession. For those just wanting to relax, the lounge, swimming pool and deck areas offer beautiful views over the Khwai River.
