South African National Parks (SANParks) has released a new destination video showcasing |Ai-|Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park!

South African National Parks (SANParks) has released a new destination video showcasing |Ai-|Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park in the Northern Cape. Formed in 2003 by combining the |Ai-|Ais Hot Springs Game Park in Namibia and the Richtersveld National Park in South Africa, the Peace Park spans some of the most spectacular arid and desert mountain scenery in southern Africa. Most of the South African part of the Transfrontier Park forms part of the buffer zone of the Richtersveld Cultural and Botanical Landscape World Heritage Site, which measures 5,920 km². |Ai-|Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park is made up of rugged kloofs, high mountains and dramatic landscapes. With less than 50mm of rain each year, it is home to leopards, lizards, rock hyrax, ground squirrel, jackal buzzard, Hartmans Mountain Zebra as well as to about one-third of the world’s 10 000 succulent species.



|Ai-|Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park is located in South Africa's Northern Cape, off of the N7, about 326 km from Springbok. The quickest way to get to the Transfrontier Park from South Africa (N7) and Namibia (B1)is to turn off at Steinkopf and approach via Port Nolloth and Alexander Bay with only the last 80 km being on dirt.
