Orpen entrance gateThis is a peaceful little camp at Orpen Gate. A large variety of game may be sighted at the waterhole just outside the camp. The Rabelais Dam is 7 km from the restcamp. Six-bed cottages and two- or three-bed huts are available. I'm sorry to say that I can't add any other information. I've just been to Orpen once, and I didn't get much further than the camp store. From what I've seen it's a very small camp. 

Just 100 meters outside this camp near a waterhole one of the two webcams in the Kruger National Park is situated (the other is in Satara). Click this link to open a new window showing Orpen webcam.
