SANParks Malelane Rest Camp

The camp is unique because it is the only camp to be placed on a boundary, the southern border of the Kruger National Park. Malelane Rest Camp has the added benefit of being a very small camp, with fewer guests than found in the main camps, adding to a more intimate bush experience.
Accommodation at Malelane Rest Camp is ideal for backpacking, camping and caravanning communities looking for a self-catering bushveld experience.
The camp has a communal kitchen with a scullery, gas stoves and a communal freezer. One ablution block is available.

5 guests' feedbackAlthough the chalets are quite old they were very neat and clean.
The camp is small and very relaxing. Drinking wine while watching elephants just outside the camp next to the river. Place was very clean. Will definitely go back.
Incredible experience. First time in Kruger Park. Small and cosy campsite. Just watch out for the monkeys. The night call of the big game around you are fantastic. Just sorry about the sounds and music of the houses across the river, as well as the traffic.
Great few nights spent at this location.
