TitleIntoduction Moremi Mopane Tongue : accommodation This is one of the main areas of Moremi National Park which is accessable to self-drive vehicles and is therefore sees some of the highest traffic, especially during the main holiday seasons. Although naturally very beautiful, the visitor density alone makes this very much a second rate option when compared with the best of the private concession areas. Moremi Central Mombo Today the reserve covers nearly 5,000 square kilometres and effectively protects large tracts of each landscape component of the Delta's ecosystem
The heart of the Okavango is dominated by a large central landmass known as Chief's Island, surrounded by water on all sides during the flood season. This is a prime area for game in Okavango, especially around the northeastern tip, which is unusually reliable for lion and leopard in particular. The major downside is that being part of the national park, nightdrives and walking safari are not generally permitted, which means that the safari experience on offer here is a lot less varied than in the surrounding concession areas. Mombo is one of the most famous and expensive camps in Africa, Xigera Camp is probably the prettiest water camp in the delta, whilst Xigera Mokoro Trail offers a really cool adventure camping experience
