Augrabies National Park - Most popular Camps
Situated along the echoing caverns of the Orange River Gorge, the Augrabies Falls National Park is home to the thundering 56 meter high falls that the Khoi people named Aukoerebis, or “place of great noise”. With an average flow rate greater than that of Niagra Falls, the waters of the Augrabies Waterfall cascade into the rocky canyon below, carving into the granite gorge and creating a spectacular roar - especially when the river is in flood.
The landscape of this
South African National Park
is stark and arid, made up of sandstone and rocky outcrops which are rich in deposits of alluvial diamonds and dotted with the characteristic giant aloe. Known as the kokerboom or quiver tree because the San used the soft branches to make quivers for their arrows, the aloe is an unmistakable silhouette set against the flat expanses of the Northern Cape landscape. Aside from the falls, Augrabies Park is also home to fascinating geographical features like Moon Rock, a hulking granite exfoliation dome and viewpoints of Ararat and Echo Corner - from which the panorama of this vast and austere landscape is laid bare.
Rosy sandstone boulders watch over a steady procession of unique animals through the 820 square kilometre expanse of the Augrabies Park, such as the dusty-coloured giraffes, the striking Gemsbok or pairs of petite Klipspringers. The Slender Mongoose and Rock Hyrax hide in the shade of burrows and rock crevices while the Cape Clawless Otter hunts for food in the shallow pools of the river. Some of the most elusive and enigmatic predators roam these rocky plains but occasionally visitors are rewarded with a sighting of the leopard, black-backed jackal, caracal, bat-eared fox or the African wild cat.
Set in the craggy outcrops of this wilderness sanctuary, camping sites, cottages and chalets provide comfortable and restful lodging for visitors to the park. Whether you’d prefer to sleep under the stars in well-facilitated camps or treat yourself to a stay in one of the spacious chalets, the right accommodation is available for your ideal stay in the Augrabies Falls National Park.
