Botswana Accommodation
Botswana is a land-locked country dominated in
geographical terms by the Kalahari Desert - a sand-filled basin averaging 1,100
metres above sea level. The country lies between longitudes 20 and 30 degrees
east of Greenwich and between the latitudes 18 and 27 degrees approximately
south of the Equator.
Botswana is bordered by Zambia and Zimbabwe to the northeast, Namibia to the
north and west, and South Africa to the south and southeast. At Kazungula, four
countries - Botswana, Zimbabwe, Zambia and Namibia - meet at a single point
mid-stream in the Zambezi River.
Botswana has no mountain ranges to speak of, the almost uniformly
flat landscape is punctuated occasionally by low hills, especially along the
southeastern boundary and in the far northwest. Botswana's highest point is
1,491m Otse Mountain near Lobatse, but the three major peaks of the Tsodilo
Hills, in the country's northwestern corner, are more dramatic.
