Established in 1898, the park covers nearly 2 million hectares and hosts an astonishing diversity of flora and fauna, including 507 different birds and 147 types of mammal. In addition to elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo and rhino, there are also large numbers of giraffe, zebra, wildebeest, hippo, antelope, and hyena. Less common but also seen by visitors on safari are cheetah and wild dog.

Kruger Park is mainly a self-drive destination with a good infrastructure of roads, waterholes, picnic sites, and restcamps.
