Help conserve nature

This site hosts details of South African National Parks, their camps and wildlife and community relations. It will help tourists and visitors with planning trips to the parks - self-drive safaris, game viewing, accommodation tariffs, adventure activities such as guided walks and hiking, bird-watching, 4x4 trails, sight-seeing, cultural and historical experiences, mountain biking, golf, canoeing, swimming and many more. You can also learn how to become an honorary ranger or how to take part in organised events within these conservation areas.

SANParks is one of the world's leading conservation and scientific research bodies and a leading proponent of maintaining the indigenous natural environment.

SANParks Public Sighting of the Month!

Our Public Sightings Gallery receives dozens of great pictures every month, and we've introduced the "public sighting of the month" to acknowledge excellent entries. Eric Reisinger, SANParks Photographer and Photo Editor, selected this brillaint image as the winning image for June 2008. This is a great action shot by Perry de Graaf from the Netherlands taken at the Gardenia hide on 6 April 2008.
