Nkelenga Tented Camp
OVERVIEW
Nkelenga Tented Camp is a delightful sole-use, self-catering accommodation overlooking one of Thornybush’s most active dams. A hive of bird and mammal activity will keep you enthralled while relaxing on the spacious deck of your safari tent.
This rustic bush camp, reserved for group and family safari stays, has become a much loved and sought-after destination especially with our South African guests who are drawn back, time and again. It is a magical experience having a place like this all to yourself, providing the perfect opportunity to reconnect with your friends and family.
The comfortable Meru-style tents are nestled under a grove of Fever Trees and surrounded by a large rolling lawn, perfect for a game of cricket or boules. The plunge pool is ideal for cooling off on long summer days and at night you can enjoy time around the starlit fire pit.
Check out our other Thornybush lodges in the Kruger Park, if you are looking to experience more lodges.

The three tents and main house are all set back on the lawn and overlook a well-frequented dam. The deck chairs around the small pool provide a perfect opportunity for relaxation, as do a number of places around the camp under the trees. The main house at Nkelenga is where most of the activity takes place with a long, covered verandah, while inside is a lounge, kitchen, dining area as well as a bedroom and loft area, perfect for kids.
