Nxai Pan.

HAPPY no:) Fence Friday:) and HANWE

Nxai Pan is a large salt pan topographic depression[1] which is part of the larger Makgadikgadi Pans in northeastern Botswana. It lies on the old Pandamatenga Trail, which until the 1960s was used for overland cattle drives.
The Nxai Pan was added to the National Park System to augment the Makgadikgadi Pans National Park, thus providing an enlarged contiguous area of natural protection.[3]

I agree with Goandgo
It's a landscape that deserves to be protected and that witnesses an intense activity in the recent past

Have a nice day and also a great weekend, Annemarie

I'm with Rosa...........no fence needed here!

A deceptively simple composition with a nice leading line from the trail. I really like the colour palette.

Happy No Fence Friday Annemarie...............and have a nice weekend too.

Marvelous! A super composition, and makes me feel very overheated just looking! Thank you for the information too...*sigh*...such an adventure!!

Have you see the AWESOME true motorcycle adventure starring Ewan McGregor, called Long Way Round and the second adventure, Long Way Down? These miniseries document the journeys he took with a friend around the world and from north to south through Africa. Incredible to watch, I think you would very much enjoy these if you haven't seen yet:
