Kings Camp Private Game Reserve


Introduction
Situated in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve in the Northern Province , Kings Camp Private Game Reserve reflects the charm and romance of a Colonial past in a pristine corner of unspoilt Africa . Kings Camp is situated facing an open savanna plain with a waterhole, which is frequented by a wide variety of wildlife day and night. Ten generously spacious suites are luxuriously equipped, and dark tones of wood and thatch offset the natural colours of the bushveld. Kings Camp prides itself on its staff and their utter dedication to quality service and to fulfilling their guests' every need. The comfortable atmosphere in luxurious surroundings ensure that every guest at Kings Camp leaves with the memory of a South Africa bush experience never to be forgotten.

Local Area Information
The Timbavati Private Nature Reserve came into existence on July 1956, when a group of conservation-minded people who owned game farms on the western boundary of the Kruger National Park came together to form the Timbavati Association. Part of the greater Kruger National Park , which covers an area of 2.2 million hectares, Kings Camp offers a wealth of bio-diversity. With access to 100 square kilometres of traversing, Big 5 game-viewing is excellent in this region.

Unique Features
In addition to its wealth of biological diversity, there is something else that many visitors soon discover - something they commonly say is equally impressive, and of enormous value. In Kings Camp there exists an atmosphere of undisturbed nature - of true wilderness - which is difficult to define and describe, but can readily be perceived by the discerning traveller in those rare places where it can still be encountered.

This subtle and ineffable quality, which is so powerful and captivating to the imagination, is no longer to be found in most game parks and reserves in the world; in Kings Camp, it cannot be missed. Here there is a sense that the land has never belonged to man; and that ever since the Pleistocene - the "Golden Age of Mammals" - this land has belonged to those majestic creatures that dominated virtually the entire world during that remote epoch.
