Sendelingsdrift Border Post and Pontoon Reopens

South African National Parks is pleased to announce that the Sendelingsdrift border post and pontoon at |Ai-|Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park will officially re-open on Friday, 01 September 2023.

The border post and pontoon will operate seven (7) days a week from 08h00 until 16h15 daily. The Sendelingsdrift border post was closed for three (3) years since the Covid-19 pandemic.

The |Ai-|Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park Manager, Ms. Priscilla Magerman, said we are overjoyed with the re-opening of the border post and pontoon as this will expand the accessibility of |Ai-|Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park and inspire movement into our park.

“The opening of this border post will increase traffic to the Park and assist with making it more accessible to the public” concluded Magerman.
