Kruger National Park - Camps

Accommodation for the 650,000 visitors who come to the Kruger National Park every year is available in rest camps, privately run camps and bushveld camps. The privately run camps take only parties booked in advance, not individual visitors. Bushveld camps, which have simpler accommodation and facilities than rest camps, are meant for parties, families and individual travelers who want to experience the wilderness in relative isolation; day visitors are not admitted.

The great majority of visitors spending two or more days in the National Park stay in rest camps, which also welcome day visitors. The range of accommodation extends from luxuriously equipped chalets to simple huts for from two to five people. Most of them are air-conditioned and are appropriately and attractively equipped. Almost all of them have a bathroom and cooking facilities, as well as a barbecue. There are also camping sites. All the larger rest camps have restaurants and shops, a filling station, an information center and first aid facilities.
