’n Waarneming beteken dat ’n gasheer die Mopane op die eiendom of naby gesien het. Dit waarborg nooit dat jy dit sal sien nie.
Which parks and reserves are best for the Mopane in South Africa?
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Mopane at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Mapungubwe National Park, Timbavati Private Nature Reserve, Mokala National Park and Welgevonden 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 Mopane in South Africa?
The Mopane is most recorded in Limpopo (93% of records), Mpumalanga (7% of records), based on 561 iNaturalist observations. 18 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Mopane on site or nearby.
When is the best time to see the Mopane?
The Mopane 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. Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; Mapungubwe National Park: May-Sep, dry season; Timbavati Private Nature Reserve: May-Sep, dry season; Mokala National Park: Aug-Oct, flowers, Mar-May. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
