Namibia - Etosha National Park

We entered the park via the Von Lindequist Gate in the east and left via the Galton gate at the west, staying overnight at the Okaukuejo Camp in the centre.


View over the pan

The eastern part of the park borders the huge (120 km long, 43,000 km2) Etosha pan. The pan is mostly dry but will apparently get a thin layer of water after heavy rain.





The best part of the campsite at Okaukuejo was that it was in the middle of the park.
Again,- we'll let the animal photos speak for themselves.
