Tzaneen Mooiplaas Dam.
- Mooiplaas Dam is a great place to visit if you want to see the wildlife in the area.
- It’s located near Tzaneen, so it’s easy to get there. You can take any vehicle from Pretoria or Johannesburg and drive about 50km south before stopping at Mooiplaas Dam (which is not far from Parys).
- The dam itself offers beautiful views of Kruger National Park, which is filled with amazing wildlife including elephants, rhinos, and lions!
- Bring plenty of water if you’re going camping here because there aren’t many services nearby (such as restrooms). Also, bring sunscreen since this area gets extremely hot during the summer months when temperatures reach 40 degrees Celsius/104 degrees Fahrenheit!
