Over the past months the Kruger Park has once again transformed from the bone dry, grey and colourless bush to a lush green paradise. Vegetation has grown well with the abundant and good rains yielded during the latter part of 2008, which has been good for most animals, but not so good for those wishing to go on safari. 

Animals have spread out in the bush and finding them does not mean you can just sit at a local waterhole and wait. The wait may be very long and without success. 

The Panorama Route, Mpumalanga: The Panorama Route is best known for its cultural heritage and its landscapes.  The Panorama Route hosts adventures activities as well as some more placid pastimes.

The region includes: The Blyde River Canyon Nature Sanctuary, home to spectacular wildlife, birdlife and plant-life and some of the most spectacular views in the country. The Blyde River Canyon is the third largest canyon of its kind in the world. Other highlights include the waterfalls in Graskop and Sabie, and the Echo Caves .You can also view trails left behind by the Voortrekkers in regions such as Lydenberg and Orighstad,.

Game-viewing in the Kruger National Park is however best in winter but some visitors prefer the lush vegetation of the summer months. The best time for observing wildlife in the Kruger National Park is the dry winter season. During this safari season, the grass is low, the bushes and trees don’t have leaves, and one can have an unobstructed view of the surrounding area.

Winter season in the Kruger Park is quite dry and rain is scarce. During this season, visitors will be able to spot the animals when they come to the waterholes in the mornings and evenings. Summer is the rainy season in Kruger Park and the rains fill the rivers and waterholes, and the bushveld looks lush.
