COMMUNICATION IN THE PARK:

FUEL:
No fuel is on sale in the park. (May-12).
ROUTE INFO:
You have to drive through very deep sand in order to reach this camp. (Jul-12).
The road from Savuti camp to Linyanti (running NNW) is the main route to Linyanti through the park and no permit or anything is needed for this road. (August 2015).
In the rainy season the road running SE from Linyanti gets very, very nasty. After a couple of heavy showers it has many depressions that fill to the extent that one can’t tell which is the latest detour of the detour of the detour – all you can see is water all around, even shrubs get submerged. Underfoot you can expect deep rutting and silt.
The direct track between Linyanti and Savuti runs across coarser sand and doesn’t get as badly affected. (August 2015).
It is against the law to collect fire wood in national parks and make sure you bring enough fire wood with you when visiting the camp.
“There are only three sites at Linyanti and the middle one seems to be permanently occupied by Wilderness Safaris. All three however are on the bank of the swamp and overlook it. The ablution block leaves something to be desired. There is a water point if you can find it in the middle of the tour operators kitchen and the trees offer plenty of shade.” - David Clack, 2009/02/01
