| Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park |
Where the red dunes and scrub fade into infinity and herds of Gemsbok,
Springbok, Eland and Blue Wildebeest follow the seasons, where imposing
Camel Thorn Trees provide shade for huge black-mane Lions and vantage
points for Leopard and many raptors... this is the Kgalagadi Transfrontier
Park. The Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park - former Kalahari Gemsbok National
Park - in South Africa was proclaimed in 1931 mainly to protect migratory
game, especially the Gemsbok. Together with the adjacent Gemsbok
National Park in Botswana, this park comprises an area of over 3,6 million
hectares – one of very few conservation areas of this magnitude left in the
world.
Red sand dunes, sparse vegetation and the dry riverbeds of the Nossob
and Auob show antelope and predator species off at a premium and
provide excellent photographic opportunities. Kgalagadi could be
considered a haven for bird lovers especially when interested in birds of
prey.
