In December 2010 we spotted a cheetah lying on the road while driving around in Imfolozi. A beautiful and memorable meeting that lasted more than 5 minutes, before it took off along the road.

Cheetah on display
The sleek, long-legged Cheetah is built for speed, and may top more than 70 km per hour if necessary. Normally the Cheetah hunt medium-sized mammals – often Impalas, but if two or more Cheetah hunt together larger prey can be overpowered. Their habitat is open savannah and light woodland, and that is what you get on your way back from Cape Vidal driving the Grassland Loop heading south or in the northern parts of Imfolozi Game Reserve.

Even though we have visited iSimangaliso Wetland Park, Imfolozi and Hluhluwe Game Reserves many times we are still coming back. Being able to do game drives on our own in our own car makes it intimate and private. We love it, and we will continue to come here as often as possible!
