Botswana Hiking

Botswana famous for its stunning wildlife and unspoiled wilderness, also offers exceptional hiking opportunities. With diverse landscapes ranging from lush deltas to arid deserts, it’s a haven for outdoor enthusiasts. Hiking in Botswana provides a unique chance to connect with nature, encounter wildlife up close, and immerse yourself in the tranquillity of the great outdoors.

Botswana Hiking

Best Time for Hiking in Botswana

The Best Time for Hiking in Botswana is during the dry season, from May to October. Cooler temperatures and clear skies make it ideal for outdoor activities. The dry season also ensures easier navigation and fewer insects, enhancing your hiking experience. For those seeking lush greenery and dramatic landscapes, the wet season (November to March) offers its own charm, though trails may be less accessible.
