Crocodile Bridge Camp
Situated in the south-east of the Kruger National Park and the southern-most gate of the park, lies Crocodile Bridge Rest Camp. This small and delightful camp is situated on the northern bank of the Crocodile River, from which it derives its name.
The camp is a quiet, peaceful camp with large old trees and beautiful gardens. All the bungalows face the perimeter fence, enjoying a ‘braai’ with elephants and other animals walking past to quench their thirst in the river is pure magic.
The camp comprises of three-bed bungalows, two-sleeper safari tents and camping sites well located under large trees and facilities to serve all the avid camper’s needs.
