Baboon and Vervet Monkey both inhabit the camp as do fruit bats and thick-tailed bush babies at night. Lion and leopard are regularly seen on game drives.Cape Clawless Otter has been seen from the Olifants lookout point on the gravel road to Letaba. Hornbills and Pied Barbet are regularly seen in camp, and when the many aloe plants in camp are in flower, they act as a magnet for sunbirds. Nearest Road: H8 Ecozone: H.

The camp is situated on top of a hill towering several hundred feet over the river of the same name. This is arguably the most beautiful of the Kruger restcamps.
