Watch elephants and hippopotamus during your picnic break
Kruger Nationalpark, South Africa
Terraced picnic site on the Sabie River with views of hippopotamus and passing African bush elephants.
What you can experience here
The Nkuhlu Picnic Site is located between the Lower Sabie Rest Camp and Skukuza directly on the Sabie River. The picnic site is laid out in terraces so that you have an unobstructed view of the water from every level. Hippopotamus live in the river and with a bit of luck African bush elephants will pass along the opposite bank. The location makes this one of the most beautiful stops along the southern driving routes in the Kruger.
On site you’ll find a small shop, a snack bar and gas grills to hire. Toilets are available. The site is not fenced, so you should keep a close eye on your food and supplies. Vervet monkeys are active here and take every opportunity to get hold of provisions.
