Kruger, South Africa

About Bateleur Bushveld Camp

Bateleur Bushveld Camp is a serene, self-catering-style retreat located in the northern region of the Kruger National Park. The camp is surrounded by mopane woodland and is known for its quiet, intimate atmosphere, making it a favorite for those who prefer to explore at their own pace. The accommodation consists of modest, comfortable chalets, providing a functional base for wildlife enthusiasts. The area is particularly rich in birdlife and is home to a variety of game, including elephant and lion, with a reputation for being far less crowded than the southern Kruger. The focus here is on the wilderness experience, allowing guests to soak in the solitude and the immense scale of the far north while enjoying a simple, authentic camp life.

Why we like it

It’s perfect for the independent traveler who wants the 'real' Kruger experience without the lodge frills. The northern seclusion is a major draw for those who find the south too busy.
