Nothing like walking in a dry river bed early in the morning.

The dry season can be brutally hot and seemingly devoid of life. Wildlife congregate at dwindling water sources and landscapes look dry and unwelcoming. If you want to go on a hike in peak dry season, best to go as early as possible!
As tough as the dry season can be, there is a beauty to the dry aesthetic and any active critter or plant that draws your attention probably has some interesting adaptation to check out. One of the other advantages is that you can access all types of areas. I am particularly fond of either walking along the ridge of a river bed or inside the dry river. It's an amazing experience to look for tracks and signs, though in our area you have to be careful to not sneak up on any elephants or buffalo!
