Which parks and reserves are best for the Ruff in KwaZulu-Natal?
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Ruff at stays in or beside iSimangaliso Wetland Park and Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park. 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.

The Ruff is most recorded in Gauteng (32% of records), Western Cape (27% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (14% of records), based on 602 iNaturalist observations. 3 places to stay on Spekboom in KwaZulu-Natal have recorded the Ruff on site or nearby.
When is the best time to see the Ruff?
The Ruff 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. iSimangaliso Wetland Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep; Hluhluwe-Imfolozi Park: year-round, dry season May-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
What is the Ruff?
The ruff (Calidris pugnax) is a medium-sized wading bird that breeds in marshes and wet meadows across northern Eurasia.
