The other type of card is the All Parks Cluster card. If you get it, you'll have access to a vast array of parks, reserves and resorts.

You pay a once off fee for a yearly Wild Card. The prices listed below for the Wild Cards expired on 31 October 2011. As soon as SANParks has published the new pricing, we'll be updating this information.
