Day trips to Marakele

[ExFmem]

I'm revisiting an old friend (Marakele) through your wonderful trips there . It used to be one of our favorite places to visit when traveling between Kruger and KTP, but we no longer drive such long distances, visiting only one park at a time or flying between them. So, thank you for the updates and reminding me of many wonderful visits there - keep the lovely pics coming

Thank you all for your comments , next planned trip is in winter, maybe June or July

So you went on another day trip to Marakele I love the scenery photos. What a beauty the park is
And, my, you had some really exciting sightings there. Aren't you lucky.

What are the temps like in March? I mean, I know they can vary - but an average to get an idea.

We had 32 degrees, in January it was 36

If it's dry heat then I can cope with 36. But if the climate is like in Kruger I'd struggle

It's the same as Kruger, very stuffy and sometimes unbearable

Okay... thanks for the additional info. So no summer trips to Marakele. Noted.
