Good roads and hides. The day we visited Hhluhluwe-Umfolozi we unfortunately didn't see a lot of animals. Only impala, giraffe and a rhino at a great distance.

There wasn't much big game to see, we saw a few Elephants and twice we saw a small pride of Lions, but overall we were just seeing Rhino's and Zebra with a few Giraffe. It was a great place to go to see lots of birds, we were even able to get great photos of them as they seemed to never fly away. The food wasn't as good as the full-board safri we were at before, mainly because we had to find our own lunch.

Wildlife is difficult to spot, due to the dense vegetation. But low visitor numbers and lovely landscapes make it a very pleasant experience

This is the primier game park in KZN, and is world renowed for the white and black rhinos, and I have regularly spotted, lions, elephants, and other game in the park.
The bush vibe can be lost during the peak holiday seasons, dec- jan school holidays in South Africa, with lots of tourist busses and day- trippers zooming aournd the park. Off season it is a peacefull and wonderfull place to take a weekend break.

Great place to see rhinos and big 5. Worth the trip if you're visiting the Durban area.

Easy game viewing with a good spread of species, many of which are easily seen.
Depending on season the scenery can vary from lush in summer to stark in winter, especially in Imfolozi. This does however have it's own beauty.
Hluhluwe can be fairly busy from a tourist point of view as the game viewing is easier. Imfolozi certainly has a wilder, more bush vibe feeling.
Birding is great across the park, with a distinct change in habitat from Imfolozi in the south and going north to Hluhluwe. Hluhluwe presents higher species numbers, but Imfolozi can very often be better for raptors.
