Savute Safari Lodge sits on the banks of the enigmatic Savute Channel in the centre of the Chobe National Park. Once dry but now flowing, the channel forms part of a rich ecosystem renowned for its large concentrations of elephant, spotted hyena and lion - the latter two animals often being in brutal conflict over kills and territory - and the region is one of Botswana's premier game viewing destinations.
The main building is made of thatch and timber and has a lounge, library, and cocktail bar and nearby is the viewing deck which is ideal for watching game at the waterhole below. The real drama however lies away from camp and you'll be heading out on early morning and late afternoon game drives in search of big game. Savute is justly famous for its high concentrations of predators, and if you visit in summer, you may be lucky enough to witness the Linyanti/Chobe zebra migration as well as enjoying amazing bird watching.
