After the summer rains from December to April, the landscape changes: colours are bright and vivid as the dust is washed away and hundreds of wild flowers begin to appear and the bush turns a brilliant green. The pans are once again filled with large grazing herds and, as always, the predators are nearby and thrive in this time of plenty. An additional attraction in the area are Baines Baobabs, a cluster of Baobabs on the shores of Kudiakam Pan, a photographer\u2019s paradise offering a visually stunning sight with the vast pans contrasting against the giant ancient trees.<\/p>\n
On a daily basis safaris and game walks are organised in Nxai.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Although Nxai Pan was also once part of the great super lake, it is quite different in character to the Makgadikgadi Salt Pans. It consists of a series of grass covered fossil pans dotted with islands of umbrella acacia, supporting a good variety and density of game and birdlife. This is one of the few places that springbok and impala cohabit. In the drier months, the desert landscape is dry and harsh. Game viewing at the waterhole is excellent where you may observe lion, cheetah, spotted and brown hyena, zebra, giraffe, kudu, and hartebeest, bat eared fox, jackal and sometimes wild dog and elephant.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":5668,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[152],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-6723","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-highlights-botswana-en","8":"first","9":"instock","10":"shipping-taxable","11":"product-type-simple"},"yoast_head":"\n
