Wilderness DumaTau is nestled deep within the vast Linyanti Wildlife Reserve, on the northernmost fringe of Botswana. The camp takes full advantage of its unique access to 45 kilometres (28 miles) of exclusive-traversing river frontage along both the Linyanti River and the Savuti Channel, and invites amazing wildlife encounters and adventures on the reserve’s pristine 126,000-hectares (311,353-acres) of unfenced, untamed wilderness.
Surrounded by migration paths, the camp overlooks the beautiful Osprey Lagoon, where centuries-old now-submerged elephant trails were created by parades of elephants, still regularly seen from every vantage point in camp.
There are seven luxurious twin tented suites and one family unit on offer, each with a private plunge pool on an elevated wooden deck. Set mere steps from the Linyanti’s wildlife corridors, game is often seen wandering peacefully through camp.
The main dining and lounge areas feature unimpeded, wide-angle vistas that overlook the wildlife-rich lagoon, while the centrally located Osprey Retreat wellness centre and gym – shared with Wilderness Little DumaTau – offers an inviting shaded deck, lap pool, spa, a drinks and snacks counter, as well as a Safari Boutique.
Built with an extremely light eco-footprint, the camp is 100% solar powered.
