Various parts of the Kruger National Park (KNP), in particular the far north have received heavy rains since the early hours of Monday.
Management advises guests driving inside the park to be on the look-out and avoid using the gravel roads until further notice.
Reynold Thakhuli, SANParks Acting Head of Communications said a decision has been taken to close most of the gravel roads in the park for safety reasons.
“These closures are necessary to ensure visitors’ safety during this time and we would like to advise guests to stick to the tar roads whilst driving inside the park.”
