The Kruger National Park can be found in the north-eastern corner of South Africa, on the border with Mozambique to the east and Zimbabwe to the north. From north to south, the Kruger Park is over 200 miles long (350km) and from east to west its width ranges between 50-100km (average 50 miles across). It is impossible to see all of this game reserve in one trip. There are nine different entrance gates to the park. The closes airports are at Nelspruit, Hoedspruit and at Skukuza Camp inside the park.

Map of Victoria Falls
This Google map shows the Victoria Falls area. Victoria Falls is the name of the town on the Zimbabwe side (southern side of the river). The town on the Zambian side is called Livingstone. You can fly to Victoria Falls airport or Livingstone airport. Upstream of the falls, the water is flat and calm, great for canoeing or a sunset cruise. Downstream of the falls, the river creates a series of rapids as it flows down the Batoka Gorge. You can zoom in and out, or change the Hybrid view to Map view.
