About This Property
We like Jackalberry Ridge as a family base for self-drive days in Kruger. The tented camp is in Marloth Park on the southern edge of the park, about 20 km from Crocodile Bridge Gate.
Kudu, impala and warthog wander through camp, and more than 300 bird species have been recorded.
Why We Love It
Every tent has its own deck, lapa, braai and plunge pool, plus a full kitchen and bathroom.
Larger family and maxi tents make it easy to bring the whole crew.
