Nsala Wilderness Camp shares open borders with the Klaserie and Timbavati Reserves, making it a part of the Greater Kruger wilderness area. The Big Five are most certainly present, but that is only the start of the wildlife array that can be seen from the camp and while out game viewing each morning and evening.
If you’re lucky, you’ll be sitting by the pool when the elephants come to drink! Kudu, nyala, waterbuck, duiker, giraffe, zebra, and impala are among the commonly seen plant-eaters, along with the iconic elephant, buffalo, and rhino. Leopards stalk through the thick bush, while prides of lion laze about between huge feasts, offering some excellent predator viewing.
Twice-daily game drives include drinks and snacks in the wilderness, and special bush dining can be arranged on special occasions for unforgettable dining.

Bateleur Bushveld Camp, Kruger National Park
On day 3, you will depart for Bateleur Rest Camp in Northern Kruger. The drive to the rest camp acts as a game drive, so keep your eyes peeled for game!
Named after the majestic eagle, Bateleur is the oldest and smallest bushveld camp and offers a unique atmosphere and superb game viewing. One of the many features is a game-viewing hide that overlooks a waterhole just outside the camp. Two dams, Silwervis and Rooibosrand, are within close range of the camp and are restricted to the residents of Bateleur (good to know as there will never be a traffic jam even if the camp is full).
Upon arrival at the rest camp, after checking in and freshening up, you will enjoy a guided sunset game drive. The following morning, you will awaken early for your sunrise game drive.
Accommodation is based on rest camp chalets and is on a self-catering basis.
