Road to Punda Maria

Post by Obelix and Dogmatix »

Hi All

So I am going to the Kruger beginning Oct and was wondering what the road to Punda Maria was like, or would it be a better bet to use the Pafuri gate?

And does someone know of reasonable accommodation between Louis Trichardt and Punda Maria Gate?

Thanks

I last drove the road in March. It was quite bad in terms of potholes and there is plenty live stock around.
Also obey the speed limit as there are loads of porktographers looking for lunch money.
To build bridges, you need to go to where the rivers are.
