San Rock Art Sites
Step back in time and explore the ancient San rock art scattered throughout the park. Sites like Masorini and Thulamela offer a glimpse into the lives of the San people, showcasing intricate paintings that tell stories of hunting, ceremonies, and spiritual beliefs.
Letaba Elephant Hall
Located near the Letaba rest camp, the Elephant Hall is a fascinating museum dedicated to these majestic animals. Learn about the “Magnificent Seven” elephants and their impact on Kruger’s ecosystem. It’s an educational stop for families and wildlife enthusiasts alike.
