Leopard, lion, cheetah, and spotted hyena are the main predators and, though there are good populations of these, they are seldom seen through the dense bush. Kaudom is Namibia's best park for wild dog, which range over vast areas and probably criss-cross the Botswana border. Getting organised Within the reserve, tracks either follow omurambas, or link the dozen or so water-holes together. Even the distinct tracks are slow going, so a good detailed map of the area is invaluable. Try the Surveyor General's office in Windhoek before you arrive.
Water is available but nothing else, so come self-contained with fuel and supplies.
This doesn't include any diversions while there. You'll need to use 4WD almost constantly, even in the dry season, making travel slow and heavy on fuel. In the wet, wheel chains might be useful, though black-cotton soil can be totally impassable. Getting there From the north Turn off the main road 115km east of Rundu at Katere, where the park is signposted. Then Kaudom camp is about 75km of slow, soft sand away.
