Kruger National Park: Malelane Gate temporarily inaccessible due to labour protest! [update]

update (27 November 2020): The protest action outside Malelane Gate has been resolved and the gate is fully operational again.

South African National Parks (SANParks) has informed the public that a labour protest organised by one of the local political parties against a farming establishment outside Kruger National Park is planned to take place on 27 November 2020 along the R570 (which leads to Kruger National Park). The road to the Malelane Gate might therefore be inaccessible. SANParks recommends travellers planning to visit Kruger National Park to use alternative gates such as Phabeni Gate and Paul Kruger Gate to enter or exit Kruger National Park as a precautionary measure until further notice. We'll keep you posted!
