About this course

Mowana Golf Course sits in Kasane, a town in the Chobe region of northeastern Botswana near the confluence of the Chobe and Zambezi rivers. The course occupies a distinctive setting within the landscape of the Kalahari, characterized by acacia woodland and the proximity to the Chobe National Park, one of Africa's major wildlife reserves. The terrain reflects the region's natural topography: relatively flat to gently rolling ground with scattered trees and the dry, sandy soils typical of the area. The nine-hole layout is designed to work within the local environment and the constraints of a small-town setting in a remote part of Botswana. Like many courses in southern Africa built for local play and visiting tourists, it offers a casual, accessible experience rather than championship-level difficulty. The course takes advantage of natural vegetation and water features where available, with play winding through acacia scrub and open fairways. Given Kasane's position as a gateway to Chobe National Park, the course attracts both resident players and visitors exploring the region's wildlife and river activities. Mowana serves the local community and the steady flow of tourists visiting the Chobe area. The club provides a social hub in a small town and offers golfers a chance to play in an authentic African bush setting, where the experience of the landscape and wildlife often matters as much as the golf itself. Practical amenities and dining facilities reflect the modest scale and remote location of the venue.

Getting there

The journey to Mowana Golf Course begins with arrival at Sir Seretse Khama International Airport in Gaborone (GBE), Botswana's capital, followed by a connecting flight or charter to Kasane Airport (BBK), a regional hub positioned at the threshold of the Chobe National Park - a flight of roughly two hours that carries you northward into one of Africa's most pristine wilderness corridors. From Kasane Airport, the final approach to Mowana unfolds as a short drive through acacia scrubland toward the Chobe River, where the course emerges on the water's edge, its fairways framed by the rhythmic presence of elephants and the distant calls of African fish eagles. For those chartering private aircraft, the proximity of Kasane Airport to the club makes for an intimate arrival, one that transitions seamlessly from the sky into the raw, unhurried landscape of northern Botswana. The entire passage - from Gaborone's urban sprawl to Mowana's riverside greens - marks a profound shift into a world where golf and wildlife coexist in rare, undisturbed harmony.
