THE TULI BLOCK
The Tuli Block is located in the extreme east of Botswana. Here the Shashe and the Limpopo rivers make a confluence.
Freehold cattle and game farms comprise this magnificent area and its history dates back to the time of Cecil Rhodes. It is said that Tuli Block has topography very unlike most other parts of Botswana. Its hills and rock crops, sometimes preposterously shaped are compellingly beautiful.
In the Tuli Block, there is the Mashatu Nature Reserve with a small population of elephants leopard, lion, giraffe and a variety of bird species.
MASHATU GAME RESERVE
At the confluence of the Limpopo and Shashe Rivers lies this reserve. It is in the remote eastern corner of Botswana. Mashatu Reserve has an impressive population of African elephant, eland and ostrich. The baobab trees are also plenty in the region.
At Motloutse Ruins and Pitsani Koppie, there are historic and archeological sites. There are two choices of camps that offer a great deal of comfort and luxury.
TSWAPONG HILLS
Lying between Serowe and the Tuli Block are the Tswapong Hills, an area of Botswana that has been largely undiscovered by tourists. From a distance, the hills seem to rise out of the plain as a single unit, extending 60 kilometres east to west and 15 to 20 kilometers, north to south.
Most of the hills are flat-topped, rising to heights of about 300 to 400 metres, often with dramatic, steep cliffs. This close grouping of hills creates a microclimate, which supports a variety of flora and fauna found here. Cape Vultures breed here. In the Tswapong hills, there are countless archaeological sites, very rich culture, history, mythical places and a home of the ancestral spirits, which are still to be discovered.
