Arid Parks of the Northern Cape, South Africa

The contrast of vividly coloured wild flowers and stark desert landscapes emerald green river
beds and arid rocklands; towering giraffes and minute pygmy mice; flightless ostriches and
graceful soaring eagles – these are powerful contrasts that leave one with a sense of awe and
wonder, like only the Arid Parks can.

The Arid Parks is a collective term describing the cluster of five extraordinary National Parks
(Kgalagadi, AugrabiesFalls, |Ai-|Ais/Richtersveld, Namaqua and Mokala) all situated within
the borders of the arid and least populatedprovince of South Africa, the Northern Cape.
