During this period, free access is granted to most of the 21 national parks under SANParks’ management. Free access to national parks at this time does not include free access to accommodation facilities and other tourist activities. You can find the respective parks’ SA National Parks Week dates on the SANParks website. SA National Parks Week has seen an influx of day visitors in all participating parks since its inception in 2006. SANParks also uses this time to cultivate a sense of pride in South Africa’s natural, cultural and historical heritage as protected and preserved by the national parks system. SA National Parks Week has proved to be a successful campaign that provides education and awareness about South Africa’s inclusive approach to conservation. While offering an opportunity to experience South Africa’s rich natural and cultural heritage, attention is also drawn to the sustainable development practices made possible through partnerships with key role players like communities living adjacent to national parks, business, scientists and tourists. #knp #krugernationalpark #sanparksweek #knp #wildanimals #sighting #marakelenationalpark #nationalparks > Video: Supplied/ SANParks
