This park is still one of the largest animal reserves in the world, stretching 350 km from east to west, over an area of 22,912 km². In its center, the famous pan (dried salt lake) to which the park owes its name was formed by the drying of a vast inland sea, whose evaporation would date from 2 to 10 million years. Today, this 4,731 km² area forms a vast depression of whitish clay (because of the limestone), a land of mirages, which only fills with water during the rainy season and then offers a grandiose spectacle with the arrival of thousands of pink flamingos and crowned cranes. Protected inside his vehicle, the spectator can circulate freely on the numerous marked out tracks and contemplate in all quietude the diurnal life of this wild world. Outside the park, the private reserves and ranches also offer a similar wealth of wildlife but with sometimes less constraints. Etosha remains one of the most famous African parks and has the merit of being affordable for all budgets. Its visit is a must for any stay in Namibia! It is essential to book well in advance for the southern winter months (July to September).
