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
- Die eerste en laaste ure van daglig. Die Serval beweeg en jag in die koelte.
- Middaguur, rus. Lê gewoonlik in die skaduwee en is moeilik om raak te sien.
- Ná donker, op ’n nagrit. Waar die reservaat of park een aanbied.

Vrae wat reisigers vra
’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die Serval op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.
Which parks and reserves are best for the Serval in KwaZulu-Natal?
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Serval at stays in or beside uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park, Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park, Giants Castle Game Reserve, Ithala Game Reserve, Kamberg Nature Reserve and Ndumo Game Reserve 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.
Where can you see the Serval in South Africa?
The Serval is most recorded in Gauteng (26% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (20% of records), Mpumalanga (18% of records), based on 449 iNaturalist observations. 18 places to stay on Spekboom in KwaZulu-Natal have recorded the Serval on site or nearby.
When is the best time to see the Serval?
The Serval 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. uKhahlamba-Drakensberg Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Giants Castle Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Ithala Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
