Day trips to Marakele
Re: Day trips to Marakele
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

Re: Day trips to Marakele
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.

God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

Re: Day trips to Marakele
If it's dry heat then I can cope with 36. But if the climate is like in Kruger I'd struggle

Re: Day trips to Marakele
It's the same as Kruger, very stuffy and sometimes unbearable

Re: Day trips to Marakele
My dad, Jenine and I went to Marakele on 17 July for his birthday that no one here remembered on 16 July

Eland in very bad light
