South Africa Kruger National Park
Pafuri Camp lies in the wildest and most remote part of the Kruger
National Park and offers varied vegetation, great game viewing, and the
best birding in all of the Kruger. 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. 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.
Pafuri’s accommodation consists of twenty tented rooms, including six family rooms for up to four people, each with a private bathroom. These spacious tented rooms all look out over the Luvuvhu River and guests can sit on their decks and watch for elephant, nyala, waterbuck or bushbuck coming down to drink.
The
region is considered one of Kruger's biodiversity hotspots, with some
of the largest herds of elephant and buffalo, leopard and lion and
incredibly prolific birdlife. Activities here are extremely varied and
interesting. Game drives in open 4x4 vehicles, night drives, walks,
hides are all part of the experience. There is an abundance of evidence
of early human ancestors stretching from the Stone Age and into the
Iron Age about 400 years ago when the Thulamela dynasty ruled in this
area. Look for the rock paintings and artifacts — under many baobab
there are Stone Age hand tools, such as hand axes.
