Arnoud Quanjer Wildlife Photography

Letaba is a very nice camp located just north of the middle of the Kruger National Park. I really like this camp. There are literately hundreds of trees in this small camp, and between those trees they managed to squeeze some houses in. All in all a very 'green' camp.

The camp is situated on the southern bank of the Letaba River only 50 km from the Phalaborwa Gate. The restcamp and caravan park have beautiful lawns and colossal shade trees. The area is well known for its large apple-leaf, umbrella thorn and mopane trees. Rare animal species, such as eland, Sharpe's grysbok and roan may be seen. Areas worth visiting include the Engelhardt Dam and the Mingerhout Dam. The gravel road to Olifants Restcamp along the Letaba River provides a beautiful scenic drive on which game is frequently sighted. Accommodation consists of six-bed cottages, two, three and four-bed huts and four-bed furnished tents.
