The original route from Malelane to Skukuza is a gravel road and at busy times can be a great escape from the crowds. There are multiple options to escape off the road if it's too corrugated or sightings are quiet, but we have had quite a bit of luck on the few times we have driven along this route.
From the H3, the southern section initially follows the Crocodile River course before swinging up north through the Mhlambane River basin, past Biyamiti Wier and then Renosterkoppies before joining the H1-1 near Skukuza.
