Today you travel north to Okonjima, situated within a private nature reserve just south of Otjiwarongo.

This unpronounceable name with the typical Khoisan click sounds means "the life of the Ju / Hoansi San". The historic San settlement has been built next to the present day village and offers visitors an authentic insight into the traditional culture and the original way of living of the San.

Okavango River

Continue your journey to the Kavango Region. En route you pass a veterinary check point, the so-called "red line" which separates the commercial farmlands from the communal lands of the Kavango. Here the picture changes abruptly: suddenly you can see tall trees, the traditional huts and villages are built right next to the road, free-roaming cattle and goats pose a danger to traffic and along the road side souvenirs and piles of firewood are for sale.

River Dance Lodge

Bwabwata National Park

Time for an excursion to Popa Falls and to the small Mahango Game Park, a protected area within the Bwabwata National Park. It is situated at the country's eastern border with Botswana in the flood plains of the Okavango River basin. This small game park has a very rich diversity of mammal species including elephants and buffaloes, the rare sable antelope and lechwes.
