Safari Holidays to South Africa and Namibia for independent travellers.

Directions

Via Kruger National Park From Skukuza:
Drive north to Letaba Camp, and then continue onto Shingwedzi and even further towards The Pufuri Gate (the most northern gate of the Kruger National Park). Once you have crossed the bridge over the Luvuvhu River, in the far north of the park, drive for approximately 18 km and look out for the Outpost sign (which is on the right hand side of the road, and built out of stones). At the sign, turn left and travel on a dirt road for about 4 km before you reach the camp.

Please take note that although the route is shorter via the Kruger National Park, the speed limit is 50 km / hour, making the driving time much longer. Skukuza is situated a total of 380 km from Pafuri.

We would advise you to leave Skukuza as early as possible. Have breakfast at Satara and lunch at either Mopani or Shingwedzi Camps, depending on the time. Lunch at the Outpost is generally served between 14h00 and 16h00.

Via Pietersburg (Polokwane) and Louis Trichardt (Makhado)
Follow the N1 north towards Messina (Musina). Just after you have gone through the Baobab Toll Gate, you will find the R525 turn-off to Tshipise and Pufuri. Take this turn-off to your right and you will eventually pass Tshipise on your right. Further along the R525 you will also pass through the Masisi boom (this access boom is approximately 111 km from the R525 turn-off from the N1). Approximately 23 km further, still on the R525 you will enter through the gate to the Makuya and Kruger National Parks. From this gate travel another 6.6 km until you see the sign for the Outpost. Turn right at the sign and follow the 4 km dirt road to the camp.
