Abu Airstrip

Abu Airstrip is a private safari airstrip in the Okavango Delta of northwestern Botswana, in Ngamiland West, North-West District. It serves Wilderness Abu Camp and Wilderness Seba, providing fly-in access to the Abu Private Reserve and surrounding Okavango wilderness. The airstrip is located at approximately 19°24′57″S, 22°33′12″E (-19.4158, 22.5532).



The airstrip has a 1,000-metre calcrete runway at an elevation of approximately 3,170 feet (966 m) AMSL. Guests arriving at Abu Airstrip normally continue by 4×4 safari vehicle, with the transfer to Abu Camp taking around 20 minutes, although the actual time can vary because wildlife sightings and photographic opportunities may occur along the route.



Abu Airstrip is particularly important for safari logistics because it provides direct access to a remote part of the Okavango Delta, avoiding a long road journey from Maun. The surrounding Abu area offers diverse habitats including grasslands, woodland, channels and wetlands, supporting elephants, buffalo, giraffes, zebras, lechwe, impala, tsessebe, wildebeest and other wildlife.
