Satara Rest Camp

Destination

Kruger National Park

Satara Rest Camp offers guest houses, guest cottages, bungalows and camping set in the heart of the Kruger National Park. Guided day walks and day and night game drives available.Satara is a busy camp, and not without reason. It is situated in an excellent game viewing area, with the bush relatively open and the animals plentiful and diverse. The camp itself has a rustic charm, with the bulk of the accommodation set out in a series of circles. Satara is well wooded and the bird-life is prolific. At night the clink of fruit bats is fused with the chirping of cicadas and crickets. The calls of owls and nightjars add to the symphony that is punctuated intermittently by the whoop of hyena, the screech of jackal and the roars of lion.
