Satara Rest Camp - Information
The Transvaal Republic's burgers divided the area for human settlement in the late 1800s, long before the Kruger was declared a national park. An anonymous Indian surveyor who was tasked with partitioning the area identified the current Satara on his map by using the Hindi term "satra," which means 17.
There are 100 power-equipped camping and caravan spots available. a selection of bungalows with two or three bedrooms, kitchens, and/or common kitchens. There are accommodations that are wheelchair-accessible.

On this safari in South Africa, keep an eye out for the honeybadger, one of the lesser mammals. Spotted hyena frequently holler from the edge of the camp at night, while the buzz of crickets and cicadas melds with the monotonous sonar ping of fruit bats.
