Almost smack in the middle of the Mokala National Park you will find the Stofdam Hide; an excellent place to stop for a while, stretch your legs and wait for the wildlife to come to you instead of driving around to find them.

This is a little compilation of sightings Hannes and I had one morning at Stofdam while visiting Mokala earlier in June.
We’ll soon be announcing a very exciting spring-time tour to the Mokala National Park – and we’re sure to spend some time at Stofdam on that trip! Do keep an eye on DeWetsWild’s facebook page so that you don’t miss out!
