Moremi National Park covers a large part of the central and northeast Okavango Delta. The area of dry land which juts out from the eastern side is known as the Mopane Tongue.
Much of the land here is covered with dry woodland, but around the waterfronts there are floodplains, open grasslands and stands of cathedral mopane forest. It is a very pretty area, rich in wildlife.
The problem is that the Mopane Tongue is accessable to self-drive vehicles and therefore sees really excessive traffic volumes, especially during the main holiday seasons.
We therefore very rarely run safaris through this area, except when using the incredibly good value Gadikwe Camp.
