Berg-en-Dal is situated in the hills that rise up in the southwest of Kruger National Park, marking the start of the Drakensberg escarpment in this area. 

The safari experience here - locating Big 5 in hills rather than savannah plains - is very different and almost unique within both Kruger and a good many of Africa's national parks.  Quick access to a range of other habitats and ecozones means that game viewing when based at this camp can be extremely varied and exciting.  Birding in both the local area and within the camp is also outstanding.  

The camp is noticeably different to others within Kruger too - the brick buildings and bungalows have a different atmosphere to the rondavels typical of most camps and it is probably not quite as filled with the feeling of adventure that you can get in other camps.  Nevertheless, the camp walking route is the best in the park and offers close ups of many bird and flora species, with good views over the local dam that often attracts big game.

There is a variety of accommodation to suit each budget and group size.  Note Malelane rest camp is a satellite site of Berg-en-Dal and offers camping facilities and a small number of additional bungalows – see below for more information.

NOTE: A fire recently damaged the roof of the Berg-en-Dal restaurant. There is currently a ‘pop up’ restaurant alternative at the site serving a good range of food as an alternative.  We will keep this page updated as the refurbishment plans progress.
