Preparations for fourth Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park gate underway
In a bid to improve accessibility into the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, the Botswana government is in the process of establishing a fourth entrance into the park.
The development was revealed by Phildah Kereng, Minister of Environment and Tourism, Botswana.
According to the Minister, the fourth entrance would be on the Botswana side of the park, which is jointly owned by Botswana and South Africa.
Speaking during a tour of tourism projects in Khawa on the sidelines of the Khawa Dune Challenge and Cultural Festival recently, she said tenders had been published for the gate’s construction as well as staff houses.
Kereng further said that the gate, which would be an addition to TwoRivers, Kaa Pans and Mabuasehube gates, would enhance adventure tourism and lessen the distance travelled by tourists coming from the side of Khawa.
