-National park
This is undoubtedly one of the most popular camps in the park - and with good reason. The wildlife here is prolific and it's an excellent spot to see the Big Five. In addition, it occupies a wonderful location on the banks of the Sabie River, a short distance upstream from a small weir that 'dams' the river in front of the camp.

Magnificent old sycamore figs, coral trees, fever trees and jackalberries are dotted throughout, and birdlife abounds. There is plenty of space for the kids to unwind on the grassy lawns under the trees, while you enjoy sundowners in the snazzy, new restaurant and bar area overlooking the water. Be warned, however, that mosquitos can be a problem in the evening, so it is best to wrap up in long pants and shirt.

Due to its popularity, it is essential to book accommodation well in advance, as the camp tends to be full all year-round.

Accommodation consist of variable units:
Chalets - 1 bed huts without kitchen facilities, 2, 3 & 5 bed huts with a fridge and basin, but utilitse communal ablutions and kitchen.
