Location of Mokala National Park

Mokala National Park is located roughly 80 km southwest of Kimberley, and just west of the N12 freeway which heads into Cape Town in the Western Cape.

The driving distance from Kimberley to Mokala National Park is only 74km and it’s definitely worth a detour if you’re planning a road trip from Johannesburg (or Pretoria) down to Cape Town or visa versa. 

As a word of advice, it’s important to have your Mokala National Park accommodation booked up first so that we can help you map out your route. As a reminder, sedan vehicles might not be suitable for all roads within the park, especially during the rainy season. 

When you book out your holiday at Mokala National Park, we’ll be sure to keep you up to date on the accessibility of the roads and necessary detours as well as gate closure times to prevent any disappointment by arriving at a locked gate.
