Sunrise at Erindi Game Reserve

Erindi is vast. It's 65,178 hectares. For those, like me, where a hectare doesn’t mean a lot; one hectare is 10,000 square metres. Think of an international rugby union field and that’s one hectare. Erindi has over 621 miles of roads/dirt tracks to explore. It's 396 miles to drive from Edinburgh to London! Hardly surprising then that the reserve is a haven for wildlife and notably reliable for seeing Lion, Leopard, Cheetah, Elephant, Giraffe, Hippos, a whole variety of antelope and even Wild Dogs. In fact, we had managed to see Leopard, Impala, African Elephant, Giraffe (including drinking at a waterhole), Warthog and Waterbuck before we’d checked in!
