Description

This is the gate to Limpopo NP. If you’re headed from Mozambique in to Kruger this a good way. From the Limpopo gate to the Kruger gate it’s about 2h on corrugated gravel roads.

600mtz per person
900mtz per car

The gate doesn’t take card so you’ll need to pay with cash (rand or Metz)

We did not see a lot of animals inside the park but the nature is amazing. You’ll get the animals when you cross in to Kruger!

We stayed at campsite because we left Tofo at 8am and arrived here at 5.30pm.

Designated sites (roughly). Follow signs to chalets then take turn towards Chalet 3. Ablutions east to spit. Showers like a fire hose & needed a sweep but fine. Scullery had a sink. Scullery roof being renovated but could still use facility.

Summary - OK overnighter. We paid 1 night camping and one day park entry.

Warning- the park guy at Giriyondo border post tried to say we needed to pay 2 days. The police translated for us that we had arrived at 6.30 last night and it is now 8.30am the next morning. He agreed that our one day entry was sufficent however If they continue with this practice it would seem the Covane Community campsite is a better option.

Road from Chokwe to park entry gate was in worse condition (potholes) than once inside park (few corrugations that lower air pressure solved) as they have recently graded 85% of it. Still a bit slow going. We averaged about 40km/hr.

Only cash, no card. Meticais or Rand. They don't take USD so bring enough cash with you ...

Corrugation and potholes for 70 km. For high vehicles, we recomend to avoid the village on the way (there is a bypass) as there is a lot of low branches.
We took that road as it was the shortest way to reach Kruger from Mozambique for us but if you have a choice don't take it. It's expensive, road is bad, the scenery is boring and beside a few impalas and elephants, the only leaving creatures you will see are cows, chickens and begging kids. Some of the weirdest NP in Africa.

Very friendly and pleasant at the main gate. The 68 km road from the main gate to Giriyondo is severely corrugated and will take 3,5 hours to do . The only animals you see are cattle and chickens as you pass through the local rural settlements.
