If you are the first vehicle in the park after sunrise, you can search for lion tracks on the sandy track in front of you.

What you can experience here

In Nkasa Rupara, thanks to the few visitors, you have a fantastic opportunity to follow animal tracks in the sand. If you are the first vehicle in the park after sunrise, you can look for tracks on the sandy track in front of you. It is especially fun to search for lion paw prints.

So make sure you plan your safari for the early morning. Keep the car window open and keep looking at the track ahead of you to watch out for lion tracks. You might even hear the lions roaring. A lion track is around 12–14 cm in size and you will not see any claws.

There are no fences in Nkasa Rupara, so the animals can move around freely. It is estimated that there are four lion prides in the park.
