Maun Educational Park
A small reserve on the Thamalakane River inside Maun, where you can walk among zebras, giraffes and antelopes, a good way to pass time while waiting for a flight.
Maun Educational Park lies on the eastern bank of the Thamalakane River in central Maun. It is fairly small and has no large predators. Visitors may walk or drive along the wooded paths to see zebras, giraffes, wildebeest, kudu and a variety of waterbirds, with hippos occasionally seen by the river. Admission is low. It suits newcomers to Maun, or anyone with 1 to 2 hours to spare while waiting for a charter flight. Facilities are basic, so bring water and sun protection, and leave before dusk.
