Elephant Walk Tented Camp is a luxurious safari retreat perched on the banks of the Crocodile River, just minutes from the Crocodile Bridge Gate – the southern-most entrance to the iconic Kruger National Park. Steeped in family heritage dating back to the early 1970s, this private sanctuary offers guests unrivaled access to the park’s extraordinary wildlife and sweeping vistas.
True to its name, Elephant Walk provides the rare privilege of observing majestic elephant herds as they follow ancient river paths along the Crocodile River, right from the comfort of your tent or private deck. Beyond elephants, guests can witness an abundance of Big Five wildlife, including lions, buffalo, leopards, and rhinos, alongside hippos, giraffes, and countless antelope species. The camp’s location allows for intimate encounters with nature while remaining luxuriously removed from the ordinary.
Each tented suite combines authentic African charm with modern luxury. Air-conditioned interiors, tea and coffee stations with mini-bar fridges, en-suite bathrooms with hot and cold running water, indulgent showers, flush toilets, and private decks with bushveld views ensure both comfort and privacy. The camp’s design seamlessly blends with the surrounding landscape, offering open-air spaces for dining, relaxation, and wildlife viewing.
Guests can start their day with an early safari drive into Kruger National Park or enjoy a leisurely breakfast on their deck, taking in the river’s tranquil beauty. Midday breaks are easily accommodated, allowing time to relax by the refreshing swimming pool or unwind in the serene communal lounges. Evening game drives promise breathtaking sundowner moments, with wildlife encounters continuing under the starlit African sky.
Elephant Walk is perfectly suited for families, friends, or couples seeking a private and immersive safari experience. Expansive game-viewing decks, outdoor dining terraces, and scenic riverine surroundings provide endless opportunities for photography, birdwatching, and quiet reflection. Whether you are observing wildlife from the lodge or embarking on a guided 4×4 adventure, Elephant Walk ensures a seamless blend of comfort, elegance, and authentic African adventure.
Elephant Walk Tented Camp enjoys a privileged location on the banks of the Crocodile River, just steps from the Crocodile Bridge Gate of Kruger National Park, offering guests unparalleled access to one of Africa’s most iconic wildlife reserves. The camp provides exceptional game viewing opportunities, with majestic elephant herds, buffalo, hippos, lions, and other wildlife frequently seen along the riverbanks and in the surrounding bush.
From the elevated decks and main lodge areas, guests are treated to sweeping vistas of the river and the park’s expansive wilderness. The beautifully designed main area features a welcoming lounge with a cozy fireplace and an open-air boma, perfect for evening sundowners or traditional African dinners under the stars. Whether enjoying wildlife from the privacy of your tent or relaxing in communal spaces, Elephant Walk offers a seamless blend of comfort, luxury, and unforgettable African scenery.
For an authentic African safari dining experience, plan an evening at the camp’s boma, thoughtfully positioned near the Kruger National Park boundary. This location allows guests to enjoy dinner under the stars while immersing themselves in the sights and sounds of the bush. As you dine, keep an eye out for wildlife moving along the riverbanks—elephants, hippos, and antelope often wander close enough to create magical, up-close encounters.
To make the most of your stay, consider timing your game drives for early morning and late afternoon when wildlife activity is at its peak. Bring your binoculars and camera for unforgettable photographic opportunities, especially of elephant herds drinking at the Crocodile River. During mid-day, relax on your private deck or in the main lounge while soaking in the panoramic views of the river and Kruger wilderness.
For a truly immersive safari, ask the lodge team about guided bush walks along the river, sundowners in scenic spots, or private wildlife-viewing sessions from the comfort of your tented suite. These personalized touches enhance your connection to the African bush and make each stay at Elephant Walk an extraordinary adventure.
