Chiefs Camp

The camp was constructed on a green-field site in an untrammeled area of the Mombo concession of the Moremi Game Reserve. It has been open since September 1999. <BR><BR>The Camp is situated on the northwestern tip of Chief’s Island, in what is termed seasonal delta. The area is therefore seasonally inundated with flood waters. Generally the flood waters infiltrate the area in June/July and remain in situ for a period of 4 to 5 months.<BR><BR>Apart from its predators, the Mombo area is also renowned for its large concentrations of plains-game, elephant and buffalo. Since the camp opened no less than 52 different lion have been identified within a 9-kilometer radius of camp. Further, game-sighting statistics over the past twelve months reveal that leopard have been spotted every 2 to 3 game drives.<BR><BR>Chief’s Camp bottles its own mineral water, which is readily available at the camp.
