Nyathi Rest Camp

A SANParks self-catering camp.

Set at the base of the majestic Zuurberg Mountain range and surrounded by hills and floodplain, is the exclusive Nyathi Rest Camp - a new addition to the existing accommodations in Addo. The name of the camp means buffalo, which you are sure to see during your stay at Nyathi. Sundowners are a highlight at Nyathi, with the sun setting behind the majestic mountain range and animals drinking from the waterhole just a few metres below.

We do not take rest camp bookings. Camps are booked directly with SANParks, where current tariffs are published.

The luxury alternative

If you would rather not self-cater.

We do not take rest camp bookings. What our safari specialists do arrange is the Eastern Cape's private game reserves: private lodges where expert guiding, meals and game drives are included, and nothing is left to the camp kitchen. We look after international travellers and SADC residents alike, and many lodges offer reduced SADC rates.
