Engelhard Dam is a large concrete weir impoundment on the Letaba River, situated east of the Letaba Restcamp within Kruger National Park in South Africa's Limpopo Province. The dam was constructed with funds donated by American millionaire businessman Charles Engelhard, for whom it is named, and was built by the National Parks Board as part of the park's water management infrastructure. The dam creates a permanent water source along the Letaba River, supporting a rich and diverse ecosystem that draws wildlife, waterbirds, and anglers alike. The surrounding landscape is characterized by thick riverine bush and woodland, with the broad Letaba River corridor providing a dramatic and wildlife-rich setting unlike virtually any other fishing destination in the world.
