Descrição

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.

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.
