A two-million-hectare savanna reserve where ancient baobabs and mopane woodlands shelter the continent most concentrated megafauna; the park geological diversity spans the granite west to the basalt eastern plains; track the Sabie River at 5:30 am when the pre-dawn light hits the laterite-red earth and the leopard silhouette moves silently through the fever trees; the only sound is the rhythmic crunch of dry grass.
