Location in Kruger Park
Kruger National Park
Biyamiti Bushveld Camp
On the banks of the Mbiyamiti river, surrounded and hidden away by delagoa thickets, nestles one of the most beautiful bush camps - Biyamiti Bush Camp in Kruger National Park. Here service, hospitality and "old world" values are part and parcel of the management and staff's way of life. The camp is ideally situated between huge wild fig and jackalberry trees with vast numbers of other fauna and flora species in abundance. The area is a game spotter’s dream come true. Where the Mbiyamiti and Mhlambeni Rivers meet the Crocodile River, the Ndlolakayeni (road without end) crosses the river in a southerly direction towards Maputo and northerly direction into the wide Karanga hinterland.
