Karongwe Camp is on the banks of the Karongwe River (mostly a dry river bed) in the 9 000 hectare (22 239 acre) Karongwe Game Reserve, which is to the south-west of the Kruger National Park. Three rivers flow through the reserve, all are tributaries of the Olifants River, carving their way through the bedrock and dividing the reserve. The vegetation of the reserve falls within the savannah biome of Southern Africa with distinct vegetation zones being represented – mixed Lowveld and Mopane bushveld along with grass savannah, riverine vegetation and rocky outcrops. Karongwe has undulating hills and valleys and broad-leafed woodland. (ITT)
Karongwe Camp
Two twin beds (students share tents) and bedding is supplied (a duvet and 1 pillow); although you might want to bring an extra blanket for the winter months and an additional pillow should you require. There are also shared ablution facilities and a central communal area. There are mosquito nets in camp (available on request). There are viewing decks in the central area of the camp, and many students choose to make the viewing decks their “bedroom” for part of or for the duration of the course. The camp itself is unfenced.
