Bwabwata National Park

　　    Bwabwata National Park (Bwabwata National Park) was formerly called the Caprivi Game Park and is also known as the “People’s Park.” In addition to large wildlife, the park is also home to human settlements. This unique layout benefits both humans and the animal kingdom, protecting wildlife while also promoting community development. Community wildlife guards and their resource monitors actively protect wildlife. Such efforts not only safeguard wildlife in the long term but also enhance the living standards of the Caprivi people through the development of ecotourism.

　　    Covering an area of 6,100 square kilometers, Bwabwata National Park stretches 180 kilometers from west to east along the Kavango River, and access to the park is very convenient. The park is covered with vast deciduous woodlands, mainly including wild waterberry, mukwa, and Zambian teak; it is a sanctuary for 35 species of large wildlife, as well as countless small wildlife and 339 species of birds. In most cases, visitors in vehicles cannot see all the wildlife in the park, but commonly spotted animals include elephants, roan antelope, striped antelope, hippos, and various birds. The best season to visit is October each year.
