| The
area is known during our winter months for its big game, in particular
large concentrations of Elephant and Buffalo. Lion, Leopard, Cheetah
and Hyena are regulars, and their prey includes all the plains game.
Roan and Sable are seen in the woodlands. Birdlife is abundant and
diverse. During the summer, after the first rains, we see a large
influx of the plains game ~ Eland, Zebra, Giraffe and Wildebeest
arrive in large concentrations to feed off the new grasses and shrubs
on the plains, closely followed by their predators.
Game drives in 4x4 Land Rovers
and walks with an armed guide form part of the experience at Linkwasha.
Night drives allow guests to experience the excitement of viewing
nocturnal animals in action. Viewing game near a waterhole at sunset,
while sipping "sundowners" is not to be forgotten. There are a number of
hides in the area for close up game viewing. |
