The management of Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park has announced that the Auchterlonie picnic spot is set to get an upgrade. The ablution facilities at the picnic spot will get renovated between 22 April 2024 and 20 May 2024. During the upgrade, the facilities will not be available to guests.
The Auchterlonie picnic spot is located adjacent to the Auchterlonie museum in the the dry Auob riverbed about 35km north of Twee Rivieren Rest Camp.
The Auchterlonie museum consists of a restored stone-and-thatch cottage that offers visitors insights into the cultural and natural history of Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park and its surroundings. It features exhibits on various aspects of the park, including its wildlife, geology, and the cultural heritage of the indigenous people who have inhabited the area for centuries. The museum is named after Captain H.T. Auchterlonie, who was the park's first game ranger.
