Description

The SANParks Addo Rest Camp is the popular main rest camp of the park, and offers a wide variety of accommodation units to suit all tastes and plenty of activities to keep visitors busy.

Accommodation units are situated within easy walking distance of each other, and of the camp facilities such as the swimming pool, an a-la-carte restaurant and a shop selling curios, snacks and basic supplies. A picnic and braai area is available for day visitors.

A unique feature is the waterhole lookout point, floodlit at night, within the camp as well as the underground hide, allowing close encounters with wildlife at the waterhole. The evenings are punctuated with the calls of lion, spotted hyena and jackal, while francolin and bokmakierie herald each dawn.

The main game area of the park is home to the Big 5 as well as antelope such as red hartebeest, eland, kudu, common duiker and grysbok. Spotted hyena and Burchell’s zebra occur as well as warthog, vervet monkey, bush pig and small mammals. About 250 bird species occur in this area of the park.

Safe, neat, special. Hearing the elephants at night and the birds in the morning is just a privilege!
