The Northern Tuli Game Reserve (or NTGR) spans some 72,000 Hectares of privately-owned land in the north-eastern sector of Botswana’s Tuli Block. It is an integral part of the Greater Mapungubwe Transfrontier Conservation Area (GMTFCA). Notugre is a landowners association formed through members’ common interest in conservation. Spectacular landscapes, rich and varied wildlife, and a host of historical, cultural and natural history attractions define this unique and very striking part of Botswana. The park straddles Rivers Shashe, Motloutse and Limpopo, which serve as natural boundaries with Zimbabwe and South Africa.
Most naturally occurring wildlife species are present, including elephant, kudu, zebra, impala, duicker, wildebeest, waterbuck, steenbok, and warthog. Large herds of eland – often not seen elsewhere in Botswana can be found here. The reserve is also home to all major predators, including lion, leopard, cheetah and hyena. The birdlife is prolific with over 350 species recorded. Travelers keen for a more active safari experience will delight in all that the Northern Tuli Game Reserve offers. You can hike the reserve, bike, horse ride, and even hot air balloon.
