When is the best time to visit the Kruger National Park?
Game-viewing is best in winter but some visitors prefer the lush vegetation of the summer months. Arrive in March and April and see the dramatic rutting of Impala, Wildebeest and other species. The beginning of summer, in November and December is the best time to see the birth of young. In general, entrance gates and rest camps open at sunrise and close at sunset, and motorists traveling in the park after hours can be fined. The park can be visited right through the year, but gate opening and closing times vary from month to month.
