In partnership with SANParks

Welcome to the SANParks collection on TrailA.io. This is the licensing marketplace built in partnership with SANParks, custodians of South Africa’s national parks.

Through this platform you’re able to browse and licence wildlife photography and video captured across SANParks’ parks, each asset carrying a full, provable record back to the creator who shot it and the park that authorised the capture. If you’re an approved creator working under a SANParks land-access agreement, this is also where you upload and licence your own work.

It’s intended for Honourary Rangers, agencies, publishers and media houses sourcing authentic conservation and wildlife imagery, for photographers and videographers authorised to shoot on SANParks land, and for SANParks itself, administering capture rights across its parks.

For creators

Shoot the land you know. Keep your share of every licence.

Get authorised on real land, upload under your own name, and keep your share of every asset you license, with full attribution every time.
