Vhembe Wilderness Camp
A SANParks self-catering camp.
Vhembe Wilderness Camp is an unfenced camp only accessible by 4x4 or high-clearance vehicles. With only four units built on a ridge overlooking a beautiful valley below, it is remote and wonderfully isolated for those who wish to experience total peace in the wilderness.
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 South Africa's private 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.
