It is situated in the private Linyanti Wildlife Reserve on the Savuti Channel, which is famous as a sporadic and unusual watercourse. Depending on imperceptible shifts in plate tectonics, the waters of the Savuti either flow strongly – attracting thirsty wildlife – or ebb, revealing grassy plains where antelope and other game gather, attracting predators. Plains game and predators thrive here, and exploring the length of this channel and woodlands is a highlight.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExperience: \u003c\/strong\u003eWilderness Savuti has a charming home-away-from-home atmosphere; the wildlife is plentiful and varied, the natural history of the area fascinating, and our professional and friendly guides and exuberant hospitality ensure the perfect guest experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the water is high enough, water safaris reveal pods of hippos, sunbathing crocodiles and wading elephants.

When dry, it is a rich feeding ground and corridor between the mopane woodlands for both plains game and predators. When the waters flow, game congregates around it in numbers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Linyanti is most famous for its very large elephant populations, which can reach enormous densities during the dry winter months. Overall game concentrations are high too, and apart from abundant plains game, guests can look out for roan, rare sable, giraffe, and iconic African predators such as lion, leopard, cheetah, spotted hyena, and African wild dog. The area is also excellent for the otherwise rarely seen aardvark and aardwolf.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWilderness Savuti: \u003c\/strong\u003eThe camp promises an authentic and intimate safari offering.
