In a park covering a total surface area of roughly 3.8 million hectares (what may be the largest sandveld area in the world), with some of the world's most notable predator viewing, on the South African side of the Kgalagadi Transfrontier National Park lies Mata Mata rest camp. Nestled into the flank of the Auob River, the camp provides basic, rustic accommodation, essential consumables, and stone's-throw access to the surrounding wildlife and vegetation.
