Kruger National Park
Of all the bushveld camps in Kruger, Sirheni is one of the most popular. Accommodation is in self-catering cottages that can sleep between 4 and 6 people.
The camp has a wonderfully relaxing atmosphere, partly due to the many tall trees, the lack of bustling activity, and the knowledge that you are in a very remote area of the Park. Whether you are a bird-lover or not, the incredible range and abundance of birds in and around this camp is going to be a marvellous surprise.

Sirheni Bushveld Camp Location.
Directions For Drivers
If you are entering the Park for the first time, the best gate to enter through is the Punda Maria Gate. If you are driving to the camp from within the Park, please use the 'South African National Parks Visitors Guide to the Kruger National Park' which contains detailed road maps.
From Johannesburg: Take the N1 northwards to Pretoria. Stay on the N1 until Makhado/Louis Trichardt, and take the R524 to Thohoyandou. The Punda Maria Gate is approximately 60 km further along this road. Once inside the Park, follow the signs to the camp through the Park. Sirheni Bushveld Camp is 54 km away from the gate. Allow about 2 hours for the drive to the camp, however if you want to enjoy the game viewing possibilities give yourself more time.
Once inside the Park, do not get out of your car until you reach the camp. You may see some wildlife on your way - if you do, slow down and maintain a good distance. Do not drive off-road in any circumstances.
PLEASE NOTE: The Kruger National Park prohibits the use of roads within the Park before the gates are open and once the gates are closed, therefore guests need to plan their arrival and departure times carefully. You cannot arrange to leave the Park before the gates are open, and you must ensure that you arrive at the entrance gate with sufficient time to drive through the Park to reach your destination by the time the gate closes, otherwise you may not be permitted to enter.
January/February: Open 05:30, Close 18:30 March: Open 05:30, Close 18:00 April: Open 06:00; Close 18:00 May/June/July: Open 06:00, Close 17:30 August/September: Open 06:00, Close 18:00 October: Open 05:30, Close 18:00 November/December: Open 05:30, Close 18:30
