Mashatu Game Reserve occupies 42,000 hectares of privately owned land at the confluence of the Limpopo and Shashe rivers. This remote wilderness in Botswana's Northern Tuli Game Reserve is home to towering sandstone ridges, riverine forests, and the largest herds of elephants on private land in Africa.
