When you think of Namibia, you inevitably think of deserts, massive dunes and bone-dry mountains. The Caprivi Strip, a narrow stretch of land that points eastwards like a thin finger in the far north of the country, is surprisingly green and rich in species. It owes its fertility to the Okavango, Kwando, Chobe and Zambesi rivers, which provide an ideal habitat for many species.
The Nkasa Rupara National Park in the east of the Caprivi Strip is also a hidden gem. Although the park has been made more accessible for tourism in recent years thanks to a ranger station and a tent lodge, visitors are still thin on the ground. Nkasa Rupara is the largest protected wetland in Namibia: To the south lies the Kwando-Linyanti river system and to the north marshes and lagoons. It is often referred to as the ‘Little Okavango’ because its floodplains resemble those of Botswana’s more famous Okavango Delta. The park is home to the largest buffalo population in Namibia. Predators such as lions, leopards and hyenas also live here, while crocodiles and hippos splash around in the river.
