Richtersveld National Park |
|||||||
|
Country: South Africa In the densely populated Northern Cape, close to the border with Namibia, lies the rugged Richtersveld. In its ecosystem you can find no less than 650 plant species, many endemic to the region. This includes the “Halfmensboom” (“Half-man tree”). The indigenous Nama people see these as the personification of their ancestors. Best time to visit: spring (August/September) when the Namaqualand daisies are in full bloom! |

Once again, a Big Thank You for organising our weekend at Garden Route Game Lodge. It was the first time for all of us at a game lodge, and I must say, it was an experience of a lifetime. We have nothing but praises for everyone and everything we came into contact with. It is a top class facility...Gavin Heeger
