Malelane Campsite
Malelane Campsite
Malelane Camp is one of the smallest camps in Kruger National Park, situated on the park's southern boundary where the Crocodile River separates the reserve from the surrounding sugarcane fields.
Located about 3 km from the Malelane entrance gate, the camp offers 15 powered campsites alongside five self-catering bungalows, with communal ablution facilities including hot showers and kitchens with two-plate stoves.
No day visitors are permitted, giving the camp a notably private and secluded atmosphere. The camp's position along the Crocodile River is a highlight, with animals regularly spotted coming down to drink on the opposite bank.
Towering trees — baobabs, marulas, and jackalberries among them — dominate the camp garden and attract exceptional birdlife, making it a strong destination for birders.
A walking route along the inside perimeter of the electrified fence allows guests to explore the camp's flora and fauna on foot. Guided game drives are also available. The nearest main camp with a restaurant and shop is Berg-en-Dal, approximately 9 km away.
