🥾 BOTSWANA HIKING & TRAILS

Trails, Reserves & Wilderness Walks

Day walks, multi-day trails, nature reserves and wild routes across Botswana — plus the clubs that walk them. Filterable by region and type.

💡 Many reserves and parks charge a day fee or need a permit, paid at the gate or booked online, and popular multi-day trails book out well ahead. Weather can change fast in the mountains — carry water, sun and wind protection and check conditions before you set off.
