Letaba Rest Camp
is situated on a sweeping bend of the Letaba River, midway between the
southern and northern boundaries of the Kruger National Park. The name
means “river of sand”, and the sandy riverbed is an excellent location
for game viewing, particularly elephant, which thrive in the area.
Letaba is a green oasis in the surrounding mopane veld, and remains a
firm favourite with visitors. At night the stars overlook a symphony of
sounds. Owls, nightjars, frogs, fruit bats, crickets and cicadas all vie
to be heard, until the lion roars, then all are silent.

Mopani Camp is the newest of
all the rest camp offering accommodation and lodging in
Kruger National Park. Inside Mopani Camp indigenous vegetation has been
left largely untouched, while newly planted
trees have been laid out along the camp's tarred roads. Mopani Camp
takes its name from the mopani trees that are so
prevalent on the surrounding plains. In autumn the butterfly-shaped
leaves change to striking hues before falling off in September and
October.
Every effort has been made to ensure that the thatched
buildings, with their rock faced walls, and surrounding
paving, blend into the bushveld environment. All the buildings at Mopani
Camp are built from natural materials such as
rough stone, wood and thatching-grass, which blends them in beautifully
with the environment.
