About Mapimbana Pan Viewpoint
Mapimbana Pan Viewpoint overlooks the seasonal Mapimbana Pan in the far northern Pafuri landscape. The pan forms part of the extensive Luvuvhu floodplain wetland system, where shallow depressions can retain water after flooding and rainfall, creating important habitat for wildlife and waterbirds. Its changing character between wet and dry periods makes it a particularly interesting stop in this exceptionally diverse part of Kruger.
