Driving the Deep CKGR – Botswana’s Wild South | Overlanding to Xaxa Camp #botswana #kalahari

This is the CKGR few ever see—deep in the southern Kalahari, past Bape, heading for Xaxa. Remote, raw, and off-grid. If you're planning an overland trip to Botswana, this is the route you won’t find on tourist maps.

That’s where the wildlife concentrates, where most visitors stay, and where the routes are better known. But south of Bape, beyond the usual routes, the CKGR becomes something else entirely.

What to expect in the southern part of the Central Kalahari Game Reserve: Out here, it’s just a single sand track, a handful of campsites, and a vast, raw sense of isolation. Wildlife is scarcer, yes—but that’s exactly why it’s worth going. No crowds. No game drives. Just the wild Kalahari at its most untamed. To me, this is the deep CKGR: remote, elemental, and unforgettable. Nights bring distant lion calls. Elephants sometimes wander through camp. And when you’re this far out, surrounded by silence, the feeling is less about what you see and more about what you feel. This isn’t about ticking boxes on a game-viewing list. It’s about experiencing one of the most remote wildernesses in southern Africa on its own terms—and realising that this is why you came to Botswana.
