Olifants Rest Camp is without doubt one of the most scenic in the Kruger Park, with sweeping views from both the lookout point and a number of river facing bungalows.

While the surrounding region is now renowned for large and diverse wildlife sightings, there's a good chance you'll get to see superb sightings of elephants, as well as a selection of other game, including a variety water-based animals such as hippos and crocodiles.
