Located 165 mi/265 km south of Johannesburg, this lovely but out-of-the-way park has antelope and lots of birds, including the rare bearded vulture and bald ibis.
But the main attraction is the scenery: beautiful, multicolored sandstone cliffs. Caves in the sandstone rocks have well-preserved San paintings. Also within the park is the Basotho cultural village, where you can learn about traditional music, food (and beer), handicrafts and more. Plan an overnight in the park.
