Africa Wild

The S25 Crocodile River road is another prime route. Leopard are likely to be seen along this road in the early morning and late afternoon, and lion are very plentiful along the entire route...and I have often spotted several prides in a morning's drive. A few kilometres from the camp along the S25, a short track (S27) branches to the left, leading to Hippo Pool. Here a field ranger is on duty daily to escort visitors on the short walk to view the hippos close-up. If you are traversing the S25 in mid-afternoon, a short detour to Gayisenga water hole on the S26 is likely to yield elephant. This water hole attracts plenty of game and is, in fact, a pool on the Mpondo Spruit, which is generally dry throughout much of its course.
