The "Capital" of Kruger. Largest camp with the most facilities, beautifully situated on the Sabie River. Excellent for big cats but can be very busy.

About the camp
Life at Skukuza
Skukuza is the administrative capital and the largest rest camp in the Kruger National Park. Situated on the southern banks of the Sabie River, it boasts incredible facilities including a 9-hole golf course, a doctor, a massive shop, and multiple restaurants. Because it is surrounded by the Sabie and Sand river systems, the wildlife viewing-especially for leopards and lions-is world-class. However, its immense popularity means it often feels more like a small town than a remote bush camp.
