Addo Elephant National Park open despite heavy rain

Post by kingshaka » Fri Mar 18, 2011 12:47 pm

Addo Elephant National Park has received heavy rain – 115mm so far - over the course of this morning, however it remains open.

Certain roads in the game area are inaccessible at present but the Main entrance gate and Matyholweni gate are still open to vehicles - vehicles can access both Main camp and Matyholweni Camp. Narina Bush Camp is currently closed. The 4x4 trail, Kabouga Cottage and Mvubu campsite are currently closed. The rain is very welcome, providing some relief to a drought that has beset the area for about four years.
