Day 2:
Pafuri Restcamp Mopani Restcamp |
|
06:00 am.
Be packed and ready to leave Crocodile Bridge for an
early morning game drive before we book in at Lower
Sabie Restcamp and have some breakfast. After
breakfast we get some refreshments and snacks and
leave the Restcamp for a full day game drive. Lower
Sabie
graces the banks of the Sabie River, one of the few
perennial rivers to flow through the Kruger National
Park. Visitors cannot but feel soothed by the view
towards the river and the Lebombo Mountains beyond.
In this rest camp, the bounty and plenitude of
nature are very evident, eloquently symbolised by
the most conspicuous of its numerous trees, the
mighty sycamore fig, which provides generously for
the livelihood of many birds and insects. Not only
do these giants produce fruit at least twice a year,
but different trees produce fruit at different
times, extending the gifts of life over many months.
Watching the endless procession of animals coming to
drink at the Sabie River establishes a sense of
one's own place in the eternal cycle.
We head back to Lower Sabie before the gates closed
for the night. Dinner will be enjoyed at the
restaurant or if preferred a barbeque at the
campfire listening to the sounds of the night. We
overnight in Safari tents which consists of 2 single
beds, a ceiling fan, a fridge, kitchenette,
Utensils, Wc and shower. |

Day 3:
Mopani Restcamp Satara Restcamp |
|
Breakfast at the restaurant before we leave Mopani
for a full
day game drive before
we book in at Satara Rest Camp for the night. We
overnight in Bungalows and
enjoy dinner at the restaurant.
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.
