Mabuasehube Game Reserve- Travel Tips

What to See, How to Plan & Tours

Mabuasehube Game Reserve, located in the northeastern corner of the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, spans about 2,000 km² of untouched Kalahari grasslands and scattered pans. This remote area, though part of the larger park, is accessed by only four sandy tracks, with some sections, like the Mabua-Kaa route, overgrown and rarely used. The reserve is known for its black-maned Kalahari lions, and visitors often encounter these majestic creatures near the permanent waterholes at Mabuasehube and Mpayathutlwa pans, especially during the dry season. The reserve offers a few exclusive campsites, providing a peaceful and isolated experience for those looking to enjoy the stark beauty of the Kalahari.
