Mana Pools - Africa in it's wildest form

Mana Pools National Park is situated in the Lower Zambezi and is one of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

Mana means "four" in Shona refers to the four permanent pools that is formed in the Zambezi River.

This park consists of 2'500 square kilometres of river frontage, sandbanks, islands, and pools, is one of the least developed parks in Southern Africa and is ideal for those who want to rough it...

With no fences or borders you get the chance to get up close and personal with the wildlife (including the Big 5). The game rangers are well trained and their knowledge of the animals and their habits and habitats are very impressive.

It's also a very good fishing destination with tiger fishing as main attraction.

Campfire Safaris - Conservation through Education

Deep in the heart of AFRICA, so far South that most people in other parts of the world believe we're still running around on horses amongst lions and tigers sits the jewel of the LOWVELD.

The funny thing is that every time I manage to sit down and write a new article for this BLOG I get blown away by the amazing little industries and businesses that run from this hidden secret.

Today's little article is about an amazing initiative by Campfire Safaris...

Campfire Safaris are part of the 65,000Hct. Balule Nature Reserve which in turn is incorporated in the Greater Kruger National Park.
