So who says you need to do a 2 hour trip to the Kruger National Park to see the Big 5? Well we all know the Kruger National Park is stunning but why drive there when you can go to the Northwest Quadrant of Gauteng - yip right on your doorstep, an hour from Johannesburg and half an hour from Pretoria. This is where you will find the Dinokeng Big 5 Game Reserve where there are some great lodges to choose from.
Now Dinokeng is still in development stage and in the process of becoming Big 5 and the first arrival is that of the Rhino. So pedestrians and cyclists have been warned to watch out please and any sightings can be reported to admin@dinokengbig5.com
Watch this space for more news on Dinokeng.
Oh and I learnt something new - Soon, Dinokeng will have not only the Big 5 but also the lesser known Small 5 :0) Yes, you heard me right. You have the Lion Ant, Leopard Tortois, Buffalo Weaver. Rhino Beetle and the Elephant Shrew - it's TRUE. You heard it here first!!!
