  Dry season game walks

  1. mai – 30. sep · vanligvis

  Winter drops the grass and pushes zebra, wildebeest, impala and warthog to drink more often at the sanctuary's waterholes, making the walking, cycling and horse trails easier going for spotting them. Cool, dry mornings from August into September are the most comfortable stretch to be out on foot. Kilde ↗
