Salt Pans Sleep Out in Botswana – The closest you’ll get to a night out on the Moon 

There is a place in Botswana called Makgadikgadi. Home to the largest collection of salt pans on the planet. A vast open, desolate place in what is already a vast, open desolate region - the Kalahari Desert.  In this episode we’re going to transport you to one of our favourite lodges, Leroo La Tau, and talk you through an experience of spending a night out sleeping in the middle of one of these ginormous salt pans. A place where you will witness a blanket of stars unlike anything you could imagine. Where you can take in the seemingly never-ending horizons of the salty white surface that could only be matched by being on the moon.  Links include:  One of our favourite places in Botswana referred to as the base from which to experience the salt pans sleep out https://desertdelta.com/camps/leroo-la-tau/ The book referred to with expert knowledge on the formation of the salt pans https://www.nhbs.com/makgadikgadi-botswanas-dusty-wetlands-book
