Will definitely go to Mountain Zebra Park again.
Mountain Zebra National Park
Overview
Mountain Zebra National Park was declared a conservation area in 1933, a move which has brought about a flourishing of life and diversity within the park to this day. Guests are taken by the vast stretches of scenery across which the various indigenous animals sprint and play amidst the local flora.

It was fantastic that is why we are going for a long weekend. 24th - 28th Feb. I was just too short for the first visit.

Everything from our well appointed cottage, friendly and helpful staffand seeing the mountain zebras in the wonderful scenic setting of the park made our visit most enjoyable.
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay!! Very neat and clean, staff friendly and helpful.
It was really a great stay. We love this park. Just a pity that the geyser dripped constantly during the night...It drove me nuts...
Although we did not see many animals, probably because of the heat, the scenery and accommodation made the trip and stay worthwhile. The Karoo evenings alone are worth the visit.
