Talamati Camp forms part of a
relatively new concept in bush lodges for Kruger National
Park accommodation. Lesser, more luxurious
restcamps are built in the more remote areas
of the Kruger. Talamati
Restcamp is private which means that only residents are
allowed in The Talamati camp and on the
access roads to the campsite.Everyone of
these smaller camps are located
in easy reach of the larger campsites
so that guests can make use of the bigger
campsites amenities and shops if needed.
If dining outside appeals to you, braai amenities are
provided for your Kruger National Park accommodation. The boma area at
The Talamati Restcamp could
confirm the perfectl venue for family get
together. The boma is situated away from the cottages so other
guests won't be disturbed..
Track Rhino, Elephant and Lion on foot while learning and observing
fascinating facts about the African bush. Some of the animals to be seen in
the area are Giraffe, Kudu, Eland, Impala, Zebra, Rhino, Buffalo, Lion and
Hyena. Animal activity at the water hole is a 24 hour experience so insomniacs
can keep an eye out after sunset to spot some of the more elusive nocturnal
wildlife coming to drink from their Kruger National Park accommodation
lodging.
Talamati means 'lots of water.' Despite the meaning of the
name, the river is in fact dry. The clay soil,
however, acts as a giant sponge
holding a great reservoir of underground water and
keeping the vegetation lush all year round. Talamati Restcamp is situated in a
massive open valley, affording stunning
game viewing opportunities. The luxuriant grass veld in the
area attracts big herds of grazers, and the predators never
lurk too far behind.
Entrance gates and restcamp gates are closed at
night. Holiday guests must
ensure that they arrive at the entrance gate in good time to reach
the campsite before closing time. No permits will be
issued for late arrivals.
