This area is the ancestral home of the Makuleke people and is one of the most diverse and scenically attractive areas in the Kruger National Park. This Pafuri Kruger Park area is certainly the wildest and most remote part of the Park and offers varied vegetation, great game viewing, the best birding in all of the Kruger, and is filled with folklore of the early explorers and ancient civilisations. It is well known for its fever tree forests, beautiful gorges and Crook's Corner, where the Limpopo and Luvuvhu rivers and three countries, Zimbabwe, South Africa and Mozambique, meet. Pafuri Camp is considered one of Kruger's bio diversity hotspots, with some of the largest herds of elephant and buffalo, leopard and lion and incredibly prolific birdlife. Pafuri Camp caters for the traditional Kruger Park visitor and is the only camp accessible to self-drivers in the extreme northern sector of the Park. Being so different from the rest of the Park, it complements the scenery and experience offered at the lodges in the southern Kruger and the Sabi Sands. Travelers visiting the lodges or camps in the south can experience the Kruger in its entirety by including the Pafuri region in their itineraries. ROOM & SUITE TYPES: Pafuri Camp accommodation consists of 20 tented rooms (including six family rooms for up to four people), each with en-suite bathroom facilities. The tented rooms all look out over the Luvuvhu River; guests can sit on their decks and watch for elephant, nyala, waterbuck or bushbuck coming down to drink - to name but a few! ELECTRICITY & WATER: . Power from generator and 220 volt power inverted from a battery bank . Constant 220 volt power to rooms for battery charging, razors etc. . Potable water to the camp comes from strong boreholes . Overhead fans have 24-hour power FACILITIES/ACTIVITIES: Activities Pafuri Camp are extremely varied and interesting. Game drives in open 4x4 vehicles, night drives, walks, hides (including some that will cater for sleep-outs) are all part of the range of activities that are on offer. One of the most important aspects of this area is its palaeo-anthropological history, with its plethora of evidence of early human ancestors stretching back some 2 million years ago, through the Stone Age and into the Iron Age about 400 years ago when the Thulamela dynasty ruled in this area. This dynasty built incredible structures that are not dissimilar to that found in the Great Zimbabwe. Throughout the concession, there is evidence of its human inhabitants, in the form of rock paintings and artefacts - under many a baobab are Stone Age hand tools, such as hand axes, to be found. |
