Discovering Makgadikgadi Pans

Let’s delve into one of the most exhilarating activities within this area: quad biking.

Exciting Activity: Embark on a Quad Biking Adventure

When visiting the seemingly endless expanse of Makgadikgadi, what better way to experience it than by racing through it on a quad bike?

The thrill of cutting through the wind, the sense of freedom in the open landscape—it’s an adventure waiting to happen! With nothing to obstruct your view and no one else around, you’ll feel like you have the world all to yourself. Take in moments of pure relaxation as you revel in this luxurious escape from everyday life.

Experience Quad Biking During the Dry Season!

Makgadikgadi Pans boasts breathtaking landscapes during both the rainy and dry seasons.

In the rainy season, the surface glistens with a thin layer of water, resembling a true salt lake. If you’re envisioning capturing stunning photos like those of the Salar de Uyuni, think again! Due to the soft surface, reminiscent of the Salar de Uyuni, venturing onto this vast expanse is impossible during the rainy season.

However, during the dry season, the surface dries up, leaving behind a white, salt-rich landscape that showcases an unimaginable world. Riding a quad bike through this terrain is the epitome of luxury.

Dress for Adventure!

Riding a quad bike offers a thrilling experience—the rush of wind, the blinding light reflecting off the ground, and occasionally, sand hitting your face. While these are all part of the adventure, it’s essential to dress appropriately for the elements.

Since sand dust will be flying, goggles or sunglasses are essential to protect your eyes. While dedicated motorcycle goggles are ideal, sunglasses alone will provide significant relief.

Additionally, expect your hair to be tousled by the wind, but beware—it might end up stiff with salt!
If you’re up for such a humorous outcome, go for it! However, for a more comfortable experience, bring along a large scarf or shawl.

And don’t forget to dress warmly as the dry season can bring chilly temperatures!
Enjoy your quad biking adventure in Makgadikgadi Pans!
