Tloven is a border town in northwestern Botswana, located on the northeastern edge of the Okavango Delta, near the Namibian border. As an important gateway to the Okavango Delta, a World Natural Heritage Site, Tloven is known for its unique ecotourism resources and wildlife viewing experiences.
Located in the transition zone between the arid Kalahari Basin and the rich Okavango Delta, Tloven is surrounded by a landscape of intertwined grasslands, woodlands and waterways. The region is home to African elephants, hippos, crocodiles and a wide range of bird species, and boasts one of the most pristine wildlife corridors in Botswana.
The local economy is centered on ecotourism, offering activities such as canoe safaris, off-road vehicle safaris and bird watching on foot. The Tloven community is actively involved in sustainable tourism development, with some of the camps run by local residents and visitors experiencing traditional Tswana culture. The town has a simple infrastructure and retains a simple rural African feel.
Tloven can be reached by road from Botswana's capital Gaborone or neighboring Namibia by car, and the nearest airport is in Mahon. The best time to visit is during the dry season from May to October each year, when wildlife congregates near water sources and is easy to spot.
