About Roodewal

Remote bushveld camp west of Satara. Very quiet with limited facilities — for experienced self-drivers who want solitude.

Roodewal is one of Kruger's most remote bushveld camps, accessed via the S36. Facilities are minimal and the camp is intentionally quiet. Ideal for experienced visitors who want solitude and are comfortable with self-sufficient bush camping. Not recommended for first-timers.
