Birding

Top Tips for Twitchers

  • Rooiplaat Loop for larks and pipits.
  • Kranskop Loop for mountain birds.
  • Thickets of the Wilgerboom River for the smaller birds and seed-eaters.
  • The northern plains for the blue korhaan and the bustards.
  • The southern mountainous parts for the raptors: look out for Verraux’s eagle, booted eagle and martial eagle.
  • For two ‘specials’ – the Drakensberg rockjumper and ground woodpecker – walk the 3-day guided trail or stay overnight in the mountain cottages.
