| Description | An outline is presented of the geomorphic history as well as the present terrain morphology and drainage of the Kruger National Park which forms part of the eastern Transvaal Lowveld. The Lowveld represents the footslope of the Drakensberg, the escarpment of which withdrew parallel from the Indian Ocean in response to the disruption of Gondwanaland. The Lowveld is typically undulating, gently undulating or flat and positive relief is caused mainly by lithological differences. The area is drained from west to east by a vast number of drainage channels, ranging from large rivers to dongas (gullies). | |
