Description

The Letaba Rest Camp in the world-renowned Kruger National Park is an idyllic rest camp, 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.

Letaba Rest Camp offers a cafeteria and a shop, a restaurant, a communal laundromat, filling station, communal kitchens and ablutions, braai facilities, conference facilities, a basic day visitor picnic area in the camp, a swimming pool for overnight residents, a TV lounge, Letaba Elephant Hall museum, and seasonal kids education programmes.

Activities at Letaba Rest Camp include guided bush walks, and morning, night and day game drives in the company of trained field guides, 4x4 adventure trails, bush breakfast and bush braais, and wildlife film screenings except on Sundays.
