Rosie's Pan Live Wildlife Cam – Balule Reserve

Rosie's Pan is a waterhole in the Balule Nature Reserve, a private reserve on the western side of Greater Kruger in Limpopo. The camera watches the pan and the surrounding bush, where animals come to drink, especially in the dry winter months.

What to see

• Elephants bathing and drinking
• Lions, leopards and wild dogs
• Buffalo, rhino, giraffe and zebra
• Warthogs, baboons and a constant flow of birds

Balule forms part of the Associated Private Nature Reserves, which share open borders with Kruger National Park, so animals move freely across a vast area. The reserve is named after the Olifants River, which runs along its southern edge and attracts hippos, crocodiles and waterbirds. Lodges here offer game drives, bush walks and birding.

Plan your visit

• Fly to Hoedspruit or drive from Johannesburg
• Book a lodge inside the reserve for early and late drives
• Visit between May and September for the dry season
• Take malaria precautions and insect repellent

Summers are hot and humid, with green bush and afternoon storms. Winters are dry and mild, with cold mornings and excellent visibility for spotting game.
