Etosha, ” the big white pan”.<\/p>\n
For decades the Etosha pan, an ancient salted lake covering 5000 km2 was an annual meeting place of all the wild species of the area.<\/p>\n
Today, at a size of 20 000 Km2, the park contains 114 different species of mammals and 340 birds. It is considered one of the most beautiful african reserves.<\/p>\n
The water holes at Etosha are well-known meeting places for mammals.<\/p>\n
In fact, it is not unusual to see a herd of elephants, a herd of zebras, oryx, springbok, kudou, gnous and a few giraffes all drinking from the same water hole. Lions have also been known to turn up from time to time.<\/p>\n
Accomodation :<\/strong> Each camp is equipped with a water hole that is lit up throughout the night.<\/p>\n At these points it is possible to observe exceptional wild life scenery.<\/p>\n During the rainy season, the pan fills up with water and attracts a lot of migratory birds including the pink flamingo colony from Walvis Bay.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row is_container=”yes”][vc_column][vc_media_grid element_width=”3″ gap=”20″ grid_id=”vc_gid:1539260947620-5f11d972-d25e-9″ include=”7161,7159,7157,8296,7155,7151,7149,7147″][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row is_container=”yes”][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1494484836971{padding-top: 30px !important;}”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row equal_height=”yes” is_container=”yes” el_class=”margin_top_60″][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=”wow zoomIn” width=”1\/4″]
