The Outpost in KNP

The Outpost lies in a vast wilderness area in the northernmost part of Kruger National Park. This region, called the Makuleke Region, is bordered to the north by the Limpopo River and Zimbabwe and to the east by Crooks Corner and Mozambique.

The Outpost offers a variety of places to dine. Breakfast is served under cover in the dining area in the main building with views of the Luvuvhu River Valley, while lunch is either served in the dining area or a picnic lunch is prepared and served out on safari at the riverside or under the Baobabs and dinner is either eaten in the enclosed courtyard under the stars or on the deck next to the pool.

Guests will be offered a choice of a long or short game excursion in the morning and again in the late afternoon which may extend into the early evening.

Game drives will be conducted by qualified and experienced guides in open-air four wheel-drive vehicles.

Game excursions are not restricted to public roads in Kruger National Park and mostly make use of tracks formerly reserved for the use of Park officials.

Accommodation is in 12 stand-alone en-suite rooms set on the side of a hill overlooking the Luvuvhu River, all connected by a half kilometre long walkway made of Zimbabwean teak.

The contemporary design of each room makes use of concrete and steel with retractable canvas sliders which open to afford a 180 degree view of the valley. The living area comprises an outdoor terrace, indoor lounge and bedroom. The canvas walls of the en-suite bathroom may be opened to afford a full view of the valley below.
