Tembe Elephant Park

This remote park, deep in an area of sand forests, pans and wetlands in northern Tongaland, lies on the border between KwaZulu-Natal and Mozambique.

The diversity of birdlife is spectacular. The park is situated within the sand veld ecological zone and consists mainly of closed woodland and secondary thicket formation. The zone falls within a transition area between tropical and sub-tropical forms and therefore is home to a great diversity of vegetation.

With this diversity of habitats Tembe is home to a spectacular variety of animals and birds.

Although Tembe is a national park, only ten vehicles are allowed into the park on a daily basis and these must be 4X4s to negotiate the sand tracks that form the road network. This offers the visitor a true taste of the wild with very little interupted game viewing.

Not far from Tembe lodge on the tourist route is Mahlasela Hide, and overlooking a pan in the Muzi Swamp is Ponweni Hide.
