KRUGER NATIONAL PARK ANTI HOTEL DEVELOPMENT GROUP

The southern section of the Kruger Park is already too overcrowded. There is hardly a sense of place left in the South due to the amount of visitors, day visitors, concession vehicles from outside the Park and personnel driving. Most often there will be at least 10 to 20 cars at a sighting, not only creating tension among the visitors, but also to the animals. Add another hotel with 240+beds and the ethos of Kruger will be gone forever. The building of any hotel in the Park is against the Rules and Regulations of any nature reserve. In my opinion Sanparks jumped the gun when they built the conference facility in Skukuza and now supposedly lacks 'luxury' accommodation. Use the concessions - they are struggling already. (Concession in Addo closed). The Board of Sanparks was appointed to be the custodian of this world heritage on OUR behalf, NOT for financial gain. It is not the responsibility of Kruger to carry any other park financially, but that of the Government. Say NO to any hotel developments in Kruger.
