Overview

Set in a unique location overlooking the beautiful Lesoma Valley, Elephant Valley Lodge lies in the north of the Kasane Forest Reserve, very close to Africa’s ‘Four Corners’, where the borders of Botswana, Namibia, Zambia and Zimbabwe meet. The lodge is a short drive from Chobe National Park’s gate and an easy day-trip away from the Victoria Falls, the world’s biggest waterfall. This enviable location puts you within convenient striking distance off big game safaris and adrenalin adventures

Elephant Valley Lodge is surrounded by a peaceful wilderness where wild animals move back and forth between Chobe National Park and Zimbabwe’s Zambezi National Park. Chobe is Botswana’s most biologically diverse park and a haven for some of the biggest elephant herds on the planet. There is no better way to get close to these gentle giants than on a boat safari on the Chobe River. Daily 4x4 game drives in the park will reveal Chobe’s predators like lion, leopard, hyena and if you are really lucky, rare wild dogs. Or simply recline in the tranquillity of Elephant Valley Lodge’s main area while you watch creatures great and small drop by the lodge’s waterhole to quench their thirsts.

Far away from the frenzied crowd! Elephant Valley is a tented safari lodge in the Kasane Forest Reserve overlooking the Lesoma valley. A waterhole in front of camp lets you simply sit and watch the wildlife each day. The camp offers game drives and boat cruises in Chobe National Park. Only an hour away from Victoria falls so day trips can be organised. Choose a Forest tent set under the forest canopy or Valley tent overlooking the waterhole. There is a swimming pool for hot summer days and a boma for outdoor dinners around the fireside. An ideal base to explore Chobe from.

Elephant Valley was amazing - I'd stayed in two similar lodges in Kenya but this one took the cake. Such a great feeling there, very relaxing, excellent service. And the driver we had on game drives was amazing - he got us about 4 feet from the ele
