Marakele 4x4 Eco Trail
Marakele National Park (Waterberg) · Limpopo 4x4 eco trail
A guided trail along the management tracks on the eastern boundary of Marakele National Park, on top of the Waterberg. SANParks calls it strictly a 4x4 challenge, rated level 3 to 5, and inspects vehicles against minimum diff clearances before departure. It runs twice a week in the dry season, from the main gate to the Moralane exit gate, with two unfenced overnight camps. Trailists bring all their own food, water and firewood, as there is no stop to restock.

Before you drive it
