Karoo National Park closes all game viewing roads after heavy rain

Visitors to Karoo National Park should note that all game viewing roads have been temporarily closed following excessive overnight rain between 03 and 04 September 2026.

South African National Parks (SANParks) said Park Management will inspect the roads and assess them for safety before they are reopened. A further update will be issued once the roads are safe for visitors.

The closure is likely to affect self-drive game viewing, so travellers visiting Karoo National Park should check the latest conditions before setting out and be prepared for changes to their plans.

The weather-related closure follows recent road repairs in Karoo National Park, highlighting how road conditions in the park can change.

We'll update this post when SANParks announces the reopening of the game viewing roads.
