SANParks: Nationwide strike action on 24 August 2022 might affect Kruger National Park

South African National Parks (SANParks) is advising visitors to Kruger National Park to consider that labour unions in South Africa have called for a nationwide strike on 24 August 2022 to protest against high cost of living. There have already been protests in the western boundary of the Kruger National Park, which at times affected normal operations of the Paul Kruger Gate, Numbi Gate and to a certain extent Phabeni Gate, so that the situation around Kruger National Park might escalate.

Travellers intending to leave Kruger National Park are advised to take note of possible delays in their departure. Services might also be affected by the absence of staff who might be not be able to make the trip to work. We'll keep you posted
