Die donkerder maande is elke park se beste seisoen, wanneer die bos yler is of water skaars is en diere makliker gesien word. ’n Waarneming is nooit gewaarborg nie.
Beste tye van die dag
- Vroegoggend en laatmiddag. Die Blesbok is bedags uit, en die maklikste om te sien voor die hitte.
- Middaghitte. Rus dikwels in die skaduwee of naby water.

Vrae wat reisigers vra
’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die Blesbok op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.
Which parks and reserves are best for the Blesbok in KwaZulu-Natal?
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Blesbok at stays in or beside Kamberg Nature Reserve, uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park and Weenen Game Reserve. 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.
Where can you see the Blesbok in South Africa?
The Blesbok is most recorded in Gauteng (32% of records), Eastern Cape (21% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (16% of records), based on 1,691 iNaturalist observations. 4 places to stay on Spekboom in KwaZulu-Natal have recorded the Blesbok on site or nearby.
When is the best time to see the Blesbok?
The Blesbok is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. Kamberg Nature Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep; uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Weenen Game Reserve: year-round, dry winter Apr-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
What is the Blesbok?
The blesbok or blesbuck (Damaliscus pygargus phillipsi) is an antelope endemic to South Africa. It has a distinctive white face and forehead which inspired the name, because bles is the Afrikaans word for a blaze such as one might see on the forehead of a horse.
