The Letaba River is a significant waterway flowing through Limpopo Province in South Africa, draining portions of the Drakensberg escarpment before winding eastward through the lowveld and ultimately joining the Olifants River within the Kruger National Park. The river system encompasses a diverse range of habitats, from cooler upland reaches near Tzaneen and the Fanie Botha Dam to warm, slow-moving lowveld stretches near Phalaborwa and beyond. With 33 indigenous fish species recorded from the Letaba within Kruger Park alone, this is one of the more biologically rich river systems in the region, offering anglers a genuinely varied experience across its length.
