SANParks Week returns with free access to parks from 16 November

The annual South African National Parks (SANParks) Week is set to return on 16 November 2020 and will run until 20 November. During the week, South African citizens are granted free access to selected national parks across the country.


SANParks chief executive officer Fundisile Mketeni said: “SANParks postponed the week, which is traditionally held in September, to November due to the Covid-19. As the country is still on alert Level 1 of the lockdown in November, we would like to remind the public that a gate quota system will apply in all our national parks throughout the focus week.”

The week is meant to cultivate a sense of pride in South Africa’s natural, cultural and historical heritage, protected by the national parks system. It’s important for South Africans to visit and know the importance of national parks.
