Moremi Game Reserve

Introduction

The Moremi Game Reserve falls within the tribal land of the Batswana and rates as one of the leading wildlife areas of the world. The mosaic of grasslands, floodplains, forests and lily lagoons combine to form a perfectly constructed puzzle, in which animals wander as they please. The most prominent of Moremi's several distinctive components is Chief's Island, an enormous game-rich expanse of forest and savanna between the Boro and Santantadibe rivers to the west. Roughly 1,000 sq km in size, it is the largest expanse of solid ground within the Okavango Delta.
