Vrae wat reisigers vra

'n Aantekening beteken 'n gasheer het die Spekboom op die eiendom of naby gesien. Dit is nooit 'n waarborg van 'n waarneming nie.

Which parks and reserves are best for the Spekboom in South Africa?

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Spekboom at stays in or beside Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park, Addo Elephant National Park, Ai-Ais/Richtersveld Transfrontier Park, Amakhala Game Reserve, Tankwa Karoo National Park and Augrabies Falls National Park and other reserves. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.

When is the best time to see the Spekboom?
