Sirheni Bushveld Camp
A SANParks self-catering camp.
Named after the Tsonga word for ‘cemetery’ that describes a type of elephant graveyard near the camp. Sirheni lies within the Mopane veld of the northern plains next to the Mphongolo River, together with the Sirheni Dam attracting many animals, birds, and other wildlife. There are two bird hides in the camp overlooking the dam.
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 private reserves of the Greater Kruger: 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.
