African River Webcam
This is one of our favourite webcams as it overlooks the Olifants River, a tributary the Limpopo River. The Olifants River itself rises between Breyten and Bethal in Mpumalanga Province before its long journey including cutting through the Lebombo Mountains before finally joining the Limpopo River and eventually flowing into the Indian Ocean north of Maputo in Mozambique. Although occasionally heavily polluted by natural green algae, especially when there is a lack of rainfall, baboons, waterbuck, bushbuck and impalas can be seen along its riverbanks and, if you are lucky, crocodiles as well in addition to hippos. You might also catch sight of lions but they are harder to see. The watecourse runs for around 12.4 miles through the Balule Nature Reserve where this river webcam is sited. |
