Maroela Rest Camp is often overlooked by visitors who are unfamiliar with the Kruger National Park. However, seasoned campers know that you must book months in advance if you want to pitch your tent in this piece of heaven on earth, which is particularly popular in winter.
A dry riverbed winds past the well-kept campsites, and if there is good summer rain, a natural wonder will unfold before you as the river brings new life. Large jackalberry trees provide ample shade during the hot summer months, and birders will love the active birdlife in the camp. We have spotted African Green Pigeons, Long-crested Eagles, Verreaux’s Eagle Owls, African Scops Owls and various nightjar species in and around camp. There is even a White-backed Vulture nest
