The Zululand Birding Route links the top 70 birding spots in Zululand into 14 local routes in three regions. The routes in the vicinity of Eshowe and Mtunzini form the southern region. The Zululand Birding Route also offers a network of experienced local guides available for birders to use at very affordable rates. Not only do these guides assist you with their excellent observation skills and finding the 'specials' but also add great value to any birding outing by providing security and peace of mind when traveling in some more out of the way areas. |
Both Mtunzini and Eshowe host annual birding weekends and birders. If you are interested in attending one of these sought-after events please check the Zululand Birding Route website for details. CONTACT DETAILS: Tel: 076 080 0545 Website: www.zululandbirdingroute.co.za |
