The park, established in 1994, was the first in South Africa to care for orphaned African elephants. Over the years it has provided a home for more than forty elephants, with five currently forming the resident herd.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe elephants roam freely during the day, returning to their boma at night. You can stay in lodges built near the boma, watching the elephants settle in for the evening from your private patio. Some rooms have spa baths and kitchenettes; family units accommodate groups.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDay visitors join guided encounters where elephants approach on their own terms — no fences separate you from the animals. The handlers, some with decades of experience, introduce each elephant by name. A café by a dam serves meals with views of visiting zebras and birds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe park supports elephant research through the on-site African Elephant Research Unit. Your visit contributes directly to the care of these animals.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"South Africa","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51932198863068,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0829\/8256\/8156\/files\/knysna-elephant-park-tourist-attraction-just-off-the-n2-between-knysna-and-plettenberg-bay-south-africa-01.webp?v=1783189127","url":"https:\/\/murmurgo.com\/products\/south-africa-plettenberg-bay-knysna-elephant-park","provider":"Murmurgo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
