Cement airstrip...

Our private airstrip Cement has been resurfaced and refurbished guaranteeing a smooth landing. All the activity got the attention of the resident wildlife including an elephant bull, who was keeping an eye on the progress. We are happy to announce that we are open for take offs and landings and completely free of any volcanic action. |

News from Macatoo....
The new tree house is an amazing hide 5 meters off the ground nestled between a Strangler Fig and Lead Wood tree. Idyllically situated overlooking the river it offers amazing views while the vervet monkeys play amongst the branches.

It is ideal for sundowners or bush brunches and for the more adventurous perhaps an overnight stay can be arranged.

News from our resident animals.... A large bull elephant wandered thru camp just as we were finishing our dessert, we suspect he might have been after the delicious cheese cake we were having. The great flood has arrived and with the increase in water levels our Hippo sightings have become more frequent. Fresh tracks are being found in and around camp most mornings. We have also been lucky with Leopard sightings, and have seen tracks of a young cub but have yet to spot him. Last week some of our guests were privy to one of the most exciting experiences of Africa - a big male lion roaring right next to their vehicle. |

Flood levels..... The water has reached Macatoo a good 4 weeks earlier that usual. We are anticipating another great flood this year thanks to good rains both locally and in Angola.
As a result of continuous good floods over the last few years the Okavango Delta has sprung to life and is looking truly amazing with plenty of water, game, birds and the most beautiful scenery you will ever see. |
