Pafuri Walking Trail
WALK ALONG ELEPHANT PATHWAYS AMONG ANCIENT BAOBAB TREES…
The Pafuri Walking Trail is a three-night, four-day walking trail in the spectacular, private Makuleke concession of the northern Kruger National Park. It is perhaps the best area for walking in the entire Kruger National Park and is blessed not only with exceptional biodiversity but also spectacular scenery, seasonally high densities of many large mammal species, a feeling of wilderness and remoteness, and a sense of history. Habitats include the life-giving arteries of the Limpopo and Luvuvhu Rivers, both with well developed floodplains and a series of vitally important seasonal pans. Between the two rivers lies a ridge of hills with a network of drainage lines and secret perennial springs to which the area's game is drawn. Rugged baobab dotted kopjes jut from mopane woodland and endless vistas across palm-studded floodplains, acacia woodland and ethereal riverine forest soothe the soul.
Walk in the footsteps of Bvekenya. The man who gave up hunting the day he had Dlulamithi (the biggest tusker of them all) in his sights and could not pull the trigger. To day Dlulamithi's descendants roam freely through this area and you are sure to come across them.
The Pafuri Walking Trail departs every Tuesday and Friday between March and November.
