National Geographic's editorial teams around the world have picked the top 25 destinations to visit in 2022. The magazine outlined five different categories for its "Best of World 2022" list: nature, adventure, sustainability, culture and history. In the nature category, the Caprivi Strip in Namibia is one of top destinations to visit in the coming year, while in the sustainability category, the Chimanimani National Park in Mozambique has been selected by the editors of National Geographic as one of the must-see places in 2022. Congratulations!
Discover the next great safari. Namibia evokes images of deserts, immense dunes, and parched mountains. But the Caprivi Strip, a narrow finger of land that juts out toward the east in the extreme north of the country, is a green, wildlife-rich territory. The presence of the Okavango, Kwando, Chobe, and Zambezi Rivers creates an ideal habitat for numerous animal species. [src.]
Witness a conservation success. “Chimanimani is a timeless place, where local rainmakers still climb peaks to summon rain,” says National Geographic Explorer and photojournalist Jen Guyton, of one of Mozambique’s newest national parks. Located on the country’s mountainous border with Zimbabwe, Chimanimani National Park, established in October 2020, is home to Mozambique's highest peak, Mount Binga (elevation: 7,992 feet). It was once flush with elephants, lions, and other large animals whose images appear in ancient rock art created by the ancestral San people. [src.]
