Lapalala Wilderness

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Lapalala Wilderness is a wilderness area within the Waterberg Biosphere, Limpopo Province, South Africa. This 360 square kilometre nature reserve contains bushveld, grasslands, marsh and riparian habitats. In addition there are well preserved Stone Age rock paintings on bluffs above the Palala River that flows through this wilderness area. [1] The Waterberg Biosphere itself is the first region in the northern part of South Africa to be named as a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO.[2]
