Get to Know Etosha National Park
Extending over 22,750km2 (8782 square miles), Etosha National Park is situated in northern Namibia, a relatively moist part of a country otherwise dominated by desert landscapes.
The park’s centerpiece is the seasonal Etosha Pan, a vast salt-encrusted depression that accounts for a quarter of its surface area.
The pan is fringed by dozens of perennial waterholes that act as powerful magnets for wildlife in the dry season and are particularly rewarding for visitors on a photographic wildlife safari.
