SA: Kruger National Park – Sirheni Camp

October 28, 2018

Sirheni Bushveld Camp nestles on the edge of the Kruger National Park’s northern plains within the Mopane veld of the region. The Mphongolo River, lies next to the camp. The accommodation facilities and the camp’s two bird hides overlook the river and a wide variety of game and birds are attracted to it. Visitors have been awakened to the sounds of lion and hyena, as there are often kills at the river. Sirheni has a resident leopard that is seen on a regular basis, often coming down to drink at the river.

🙂 Lovely quiet camp.

Sirheni Camp in Kruger National Park has two superb hides positioned about 100 metres (328 feet) apart and connected by a trail that follows the length of the perimeter fence. Like the balconies of most of the cottages, they are raised quite high, giving views over the river and surroundings.

The hide on the perimeter fence is a good place for doing some bird watching. The hide is also the best place for sightseeing and observing wildlife coming down to the water for a drink. Perhaps you could catch a glimpse of Sirheni Camp’s resident Leopard which is seen on a regular basis.
