Really?
That's my first choice road when I am in the Satara area.

Although yesterday I was looking through all my dad's old pics from Kruger and in the 80s we had great lion and cheetah sightings there! ;-)

I also have never had much luck on the H6 :-? Honey Badger, lion, general game :-? Maybe a road needs to produce a leopard for me to rate it =O: \O

Seen my only cheetah of recent trips along the H6.

Plenty Zebras, Wildebeest, Giraffe. Kudu and Steenbok also seem quite common.
And also seen Ostrich quite often

Our most successful roads in the park have been the H4-1, S100 and the S114 \O

I must say, that this past December, this road lived up to its excellent reputation.

We did the S100, S41, H6 loop on a number of times.
And all 3 roads delivered.

Lions, cheetah on multiple occasions, plenty of elephants, buffalo, and loads of general game.

Did this loop again on my recent trip. Very very dissapointing. Hardly any sightings along the route, hardly any impalas.

But I took the S28 from LS to Croc Bridge and then the H4-1 back. Had some awesome sightings. Big5, doggies and loads of general game.
