Pilanesberg National Park
The Pilanesberg
National Park is 55 000 Hectares in extent and borders on the Sun City
entertainment complex. The most remarkable feature of this destination
is the 1200 million-year old volcano crater with Mankwe Lake in the
centre. Because of its positioning between the Kalahari and Lowveld,
the vegetation from both areas are located on this terrain. The
Pilanesberg National Park is native to all species of animals that
naturally occur in this region of South Africa including the big five,
wild dog, and rarer species such as Brown Hyena, Tsessebe and Aardwolf.
The Park also offers a number of picnic spots, numerous hides for game
