Quick day trip in Kruger

Post by Dodging »

Hey Guys

Was thinking of doing a drive through Kruger tomorrow. Now we are staying at Swadini, and still need to come back this side. Was thinking of entering Orpen Gate, head to Satara, then N'wanetsi, dirt road to Tshokwane and then back toward Orpen gate one way or another. Want to be out of the park by around 3pm.

It's been over 20 years since I've been in the park, so I don't know if it will be a wothwhile route or not. Any comments or suggestions?

Take the S100 to N'wanetsi. There is a pride of lion with 21 cubs including a white cub!

Consider coming back from Tshokwane via the S34/S36 and look out for the Sables around Nhlanguleni.

I can recommend the pap en wors at Tshokwane!
