Kruger National Park
Proclaimed a NP in 1898 by the then president Paul Kruger
20'000 km² of wilderness in eastern South Africa
Borders with private reserves
The 20’000 km² park is home in its west to a number of private nature reserves, with luxurious lodges and a high concentration of wildlife. When the civil war in Mozambique ended, fences were partly removed to the east, allowing animals to wander freely into Mozambique (Great Limpopo Transfrontier Park). A sighting of the big five (elephant, buffalo, lion, leopard and rhino) is almost guaranteed if you visit one of these private lodges.
