Pretoriuskop
Pretoriuskop
Pretoriuskop Rest Camp is the oldest rest camp in Kruger National Park, opened in 1928 and situated in the park's south-western foothills near the Numbi entrance gate.
The camp takes its name from a nearby kopje where Voortrekker Willem Pretorius, a member of an 1848 expedition, is buried.
At the highest altitude in Kruger, it tends to run cooler than the rest of the park, making it a popular retreat during hot summer months. The N'waswitshaka River has its origin near Pretoriuskop, flowing eastward to join the Sabie River at Skukuza.
The camp offers around 43 tent and caravan sites, with or without power points, served by communal ablution and cooking facilities including electric hotplates and braai areas.
Well-shaded perimeter sites are particularly sought after, and the camp is well regarded among birding enthusiasts, especially around the rock swimming pool set among flat granite boulders.
