This 320,000 acre private concession located in Northern Botswana contains the Selinda Spillway which links together the Okavango Delta to the floodplains of the Linyanti Swamps. The Spillway provides a major thoroughfare for game migrating between these two rivers systems and is well known for its game-rich floodplains which is home to a variety of bird life, wild dog, cheetah, lion, antelope and zebra and during the dry season the high concentration of elephants. It is also where lion have been filmed hunting hippo and a new, unique three nights canoe trail takes advantage of the Selinda Spillway flowing for the first time in over thirty years in 2009 and again in 2010.
There are some fantastic camps and accommodations in the Selinda Reserve, including the Selinda Canoe Trail, Selinda Camp and Zarafa Camp.
