Addo Elephant Park is officially
one of South Africa's twenty national parks and is located close to Port
Elizabeth. A section of the park was founded back in 1931 in order to give
sanctuary for the 11 remaining elephants in the area. As the park proved
successful, it was expanded and now is home to more than 450 elephants,
400 Cape buffalo, over 48 endangered black rhino as well as a variety of
antelope species. Recently spotted hyena and lion have been re-introduced
into the area and the Addo Elephant Park is also home to a unique species
of flightless dung beetle by the name of Circellium bacchus.... read

| About Addo Village: About
an hour's drive from Port Elizabeth,
Addo
is a small farming town that's best known for its proximity to the Greater
Addo Elephant National Park, which is South Africa's first 'Big Seven'
reserve. As well as the usual Big Five - rhino, lion, elephant, leopard
and buffalo, the park, which extends to the sea and some offshore islands,
also offers sightings of southern right whales and (great) white sharks.
The park offers comfortable SANParks accommodation, as well as one luxury
lodge within the reserve, but there are a number of excellent safari
lodges,
guest houses and B&B's
on the fringes of the park. You can do a horse ride among the game in the
park or ride an elephant close by. Addo is a citrus farming and horse breeding
area with a very active local polo community. |
