It occupies an area of some 3000 hectares and shares a boundary with the Kruger National Park.

The remaining game species such as kudu, zebra, giraffe, blue wildebeest, nyala, impala, bushbuck, warthog, baboon, vervet monkey, ostrich and others aren't restricted by fences and roam freely between the units that occupy the northern section.

The holiday town is a unique project, in that a large part of the park was left natural.

While walking along the Crocodile River, wildlife scenes of the adjacent Kruger National Park also come into view.

Marloth Park features a humid subtropical climate with mild winters and hot summers.
