The best time to visit Werda is during the dry season, from May to October, when the weather is most comfortable for outdoor activities and wildlife viewing.
During these months, the temperatures are generally mild, with warm days and cooler nights, making it ideal for exploring the surrounding Kalahari landscape. The lack of rain means the vegetation is sparser, which significantly improves visibility for spotting animals, particularly around water sources. This period also sees less humidity, adding to the overall comfort of your trip.
For those interested in wildlife photography or safaris, this season offers the best opportunities. Animals tend to congregate around the limited waterholes, making them easier to find. Day trips into the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, which is easily accessible from Werda, are particularly rewarding during this time.
The shoulder months of May and October can offer a good balance of pleasant weather and fewer crowds, potentially translating to better value on accommodations and guided tours.
