Descripción

With its lush riverine vegetation, floodplains and subtropical climate the Pafuri area is one of the most diverse birding spots in Kruger National Park. Falling at the southern most distribution of many bird species this area regularly delivers sightings unlikely to be found elsewhere in South Africa.

The Pafuri picnic site is a great place to get out the car and stretch your legs. With ablutions and picnic tables set next to the Levubu river you are sure to add a good number of birds to your sightings list. As with most birding spots within the Kruger National Park you are only allowed to walk within the designated area, but this still provides ample of bird viewing options.
