Overnight: Hyena Pan Tented Camp
Hyena Pan is a tented bushlodge on a private conservation area east of Moremi Game Reserve. The camp is built around a permanent water hole to the north west of Moremi Game Reserve’s northern gate. This is one of the few permanent water holes in this area and attracts elephants and other wildlife. The water hole is also part of the elephant route between Savuti in the Chobe National Park and the Okavango Delta, and as such we see movement of elephant through the area constantly. The camp is rustic yet comfortable, its charming simplicity making it the perfect getaway into the wilderness.
