Maps of The Karoo National Park in South Africa
Number 11 on the map below is the location of the
Karoo National Park in the Western Cape Province. The map shows South Africa with the locations of
all its National Parks.
Discover the fascinating mysteries of the Park’s fossilized history, the days when enormous
Dinosaurs and other huge mammals and amphibians were thumping their massive feet on the same ground
as you are walking on in the Park.
The map below shows you the location of all the national parks in South

Satellite map of South Africa showing the vast Karoo region within the yellow line.
On the satellite image of South Africa above, the whole area within the yellow line is what we call Karoo.
It can be subdivided in two ways. From an ecological point of view the large semi-desert area between the
green and yellow lines is called the Nama Karoo region and the small area with a larger rainfall between
the green line and the coast is called the Succulent or Green Karoo.
The other and more familiar subdivision is from a geographical point of view, whereby the large northern
area between the yellow and green lines is known as the Great Karoo (“Groot Karoo”) and the smaller southern
area as the Little Karoo ("Klein Karoo").
