About Kings Pool Camp
Kings Pool Camp is located
in a private reserve in the Linyanti / Savuti Channel area in the northern part
of Botswana, on the western boundary of Chobe National Park. The source of the
Savuti Channel is within this private reserve. The camp overlooks the
oxbow-shaped Kings Pool Lagoon and the Linyanti River to the north. The area has
a large wildlife resource with a wide variety of species, but it is most noted
for its very large Elephant populations, which can reach enormous densities
during our winter months. There are good populations of Impala, Lechwe, Kudu,
Zebra, Giraffe, Sable, Waterbuck, Buffalo, Bushbuck and the smaller plains
antelope. The major predators such as Lion, Leopard, Cheetah, Wild Dog and Hyena
are resident, and are regularly sighted. The reed and papyrus swamps are ideal
for numerous and diverse species of birds and are a magnet for game in the dry
winter months. Accommodation is in 10 comfortably appointed twin bedded tented
rooms overlooking the Hippo filled lagoon in front of the camp. Wonderful tiled
bathroom facilities are en-suite under thatch. Each bathroom has a shower, hand
basin and flush toilet. The main lounge, pub and dining room are under thatch,
and there is a swimming pool built into the deck. Activities include game drives
in open 4x4 Land Rovers, night drives, boat safaris (water levels permitting)
and guided walks.
