Since its inception in 2006, National Parks Week has attracted a significant number of day visitors to participating parks.
SanParks uses this week to promote pride in South Africa’s natural, cultural, and historical heritage preserved by the national parks system.
The campaign has effectively raised awareness about South Africa’s inclusive conservation efforts. It provides an opportunity to explore the country’s rich heritage while highlighting sustainable development practices supported by partnerships with local communities, businesses, scientists, and tourists.
