• Departing Johannesburg at 06:30 am we head to the remote Mabuasehube which is part of the Kalahari Transfrontier Park and situated in the east of the park.
• This area of the Kalahari Transfrontier Park comprises a series of huge pans, which are the principal focus of the reserve.
• All of the major predators can be seen at Mabuasehube, including the Kalahari black-maned lion, cheetah, leopard, brown hyena, bat-eared fox, lynx, and silver fox.
• Small mammals, like the Cape fox, aardwolf and black-footed cat can be seen at the pans in the evening.
• Campsites dot the various pans, and many are situated on slight promontories, giving almost unimpeded vision, thus making for good game viewing right from your camp-side chair.
