Olifants is the camp with the best view of them all. This camp overlooks the Olifants River and surroundings and is situated approximately 82 km from the Phalaborwa Gate. The view over Olifants river from the restaurant and viewpoint is spectacular. From this viewpoint I've spotted lions, impala and hippos so it's well worth checking out this camp. The riolite formations of the Lebombo Mountains and the variation in the vegetation give the camp its exceptional character. Fever trees, wild fig and tree euphorbias may be sighted along the river drive. This scenic drive follows the Olifants and the Letaba Rivers and game such as elephant, zebra, impala and kudu are often sighted en route. Accommodation comprises of four-bed cottages and two-bed huts.
