Mokala National Park is a reserve established in the Plooysburg area south-west of Kimberley in the Northern Cape, South Africa on 19 June 2007.

Mokala is the Setswana name for the magnificent camel thorn, a tree species typical of the arid western interior and common in the area.

This region is the transition zone of the savanna (Kalahari and Nama Karoo) biomes; the former being flat and sandy dotted with camel thorns, umbrella thorns, puzzle bushes and haystack-like sociable weaver nests constructed in the larger trees, and the latter characterised by rocky lava outcrops, calcrete and shales.

The southern region of the park, closest to the entrance gate, is more plains-like, with isolated camel thorns and tall grasses.

The central regions of the park consist of the Karoo-like habitats, with long rows of rocky outcrops interspersed with flat areas of grass and scrub.

The list of bird species is not inclusive but rather shows the most common or special ones Accommodation can be found at one of three lodges, Mosu, Haak-en-Steek and Lilydale.

Sites at Motswedi each offer a private toilet, shower (solar geyser) and a built-in breakfast nook overlooking the waterhole.

From Cape Town's direction, follow the N12 north past Hopetown, and turn left after 65 km at the crossing.
