Linyanti
North of Savuti is Linyanti, an
almost forgotten corner of the Chobe National park. With its mature
woodland and beautiful fiver frontage on the Linyanti Swamp, it is
one of the most attractive areas in the park. It boasts a great diversity
of game and a restful atmosphere.
This area is best known for its
enormous herds of elephants which move down to the Linyanti River
at the start of our winter months and only move back inland once
the main rains arrive. Sable and Roan Antelope occur as well as
Lion, Leopard and Wild Dog. The marshes are home to Red Lechwe,
Sitatunga, Hippo, Crocodiles and wonderful birdlife. And moving
along the fringes of the waterways, one can see Kudu, Zebra, Buffalo,
Waterbuck and Impala.
