The
Limpopo River Valley forms the eastern boundary between
Botswana and the Limpopo Province in the northern South
Africa.
The Limpopo river valleys is an important wetland that
borders the well known Tuli Block which includes Mashatu
Game reserve. This bounder-strewn landscape is
strikingly different to the rest of Botswana. It varies
greatly from rockey outcrops like Solomon's Wall, that
rise from flat, scrub-covered plains to lush riverine
along the Limpopo River.
