The region of Mashatu Game Reserve
Located in Botswana’s south-eastern corner, where the Limpopo and Shashe Rivers meet, Mashatu is part of the Northern Tuli Game Reserve.
This 42,000-hectare privately owned game reserve is one of the few unfenced wilderness areas - creating corridors for wildlife to roam freely - the animals found of Mashatu choose to call it home.
Mashatu Game Reserve features rich biodiversity, dramatic sandstone formations, and some of the best elephant and predator sightings in Southern Africa. It is a cornerstone of the Greater Mapungubwe Transfrontier Conservation Area, bordered by Zimbabwe and South Africa.
