Get to Know Caprivi Strip

Scenic Namibia is widely known as an arid country, but the Caprivi region is Namibia’s lush green heartland characterised by three perennial rivers and an abundance of wildlife

Home to the perennial Kavango, Kwando (Linyanti) and Zambezi rivers, the Caprivi Strip is a lush green tether of land joining arid Namibia to the mighty Zambezi. For decades this was the scene of intense fighting, but thankfully the Caprivi’s military bases have finally been silenced. While on game drive in Bwabwata National Park – one of the four Namibian parks located in the Caprivi – it is not uncommon to pass by overgrown shooting ranges and the remnants of old military encampments. But its pleasing to see wildlife numbers rebounding and nature rightfully reclaiming her domain in these areas once more.
