Okavango Delta
The Okavango Delta is a truly great wildernesses in a unique pulsing wetland. Covering between 6,000 and 15,000 square kilometres of the Kalahari Desert in northern Botswana, the Okavango Delta owes its existence to the Okavango (Kavango) River, which flows from the Angolan highlands, across Namibia’s Caprivi Strip and into the harsh Kalahari Desert. Each year the Okavango River discharges approximately 11 cubic kilometres of water into the Okavango Delta.
