Vrae wat reisigers vra

’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die Red Knot op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.

Which parks and reserves are best for the Red Knot in South Africa?

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Red Knot at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Addo Elephant National Park, Table Mountain National Park, Agulhas National Park, De Mond Nature Reserve and iSimangaliso Wetland Park and other reserves. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.
