Berg-en-Dal Rest Camp
Berg-en-Dal
Kruger's southernmost hill camp, surrounded by rolling hills. Elephants and rhinos visit the dam here, and the area is home to African wild dogs.
Berg-en-Dal, meaning 'mountain and valley' in Dutch, lies in the southwest of Kruger, about 12 km from Malelane Gate. It opened in 1984 and is surrounded by granite hills and bush, a landscape that differs from the plains. The camp borders a dam where elephants, rhinos and hippos often come to drink. The Rhino Trail, which runs along the inside of the camp's fence, allows visitors to walk safely and observe wildlife. The surrounding area is a traditional haunt of white rhinos and African wild dogs. It is one of the quickest camps to reach from Johannesburg via the N4.
