    A wonderful wetland salt pan you can walk around. It has a nice concrete path you can stick too. During certain seasons u can see the flamingos stocking up in food. You can walk here alone, but I would go in a group of 2 or more.

    Beautiful surroundings and always interesting bird life to see on the pan. Since it is winter, no flamingos, but Egyptian geese and Cape Teal ducks with their chicks entertained me on this very windy and cold day. Nice to walk along the pan and just breathe the fresh air in a safe environment.

    Nature at its best, if it's good enough for the Flamingos to visit it good enough for me.

    Sadly, very dry right now, very little of the normally abundant bird life on display. Can only hope good winter rains will restore things. Thankfully, after some good rains, a large flock of flamingos has returned to the pan, a lovely sight to behold!
