Mlilwane Wildlife Sanctuary is not just about animals. It provides an amazing landscape. Take a walk or rent a mountainbike, and explore every corner of this peaceful place. Beware of crocodiles by the water though. :) http://www.earthseeing.com/swaziland-night-listen-sound-animals/ #mlilwane #africa #swaziland #landscape #nature #BestOf5
Mlilwane Wildlife Sanctury is one of the Big Game Parks in Swaziland. You can make hikes in the park, on foot or horseback, between the various antilopes and zebra. In the middle of the park is a big lake (be careful there are crocodiles...) which is a lovely setting, especially to watch the sunset or sunrise.
