Kalahari Tented Camp is a property for self catering in Kgalagadi for anyone visiting the Kalahari region.

About Kalahari Tented Camp

Explore the SANParks Kalahari Tented Camp, a hidden gem within the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park.

Perched atop sandy dunes, it offers serene views of a waterhole nestled in the ancient Auob Riverbed. Conveniently located just 3 km from the Mata-Mata Rest Camp and near the newly opened Namibian border post, it seamlessly blends into the desert landscape.

Accommodation

For those seeking a peaceful retreat, our 15 Desert Tents provide a cozy haven, adorned with natural accents that blend harmoniously with the park's surroundings.

Elevated on stilts, each tent offers comfortable living spaces and a well-equipped kitchen for a homely experience in the wilderness.

Each tent has a separate but private tented kitchen that is equipped with a 2-plate gas stove, fridge-freezer, cutlery, crockery and cooking utensils, and a 2-seater table and chairs.

Power in the camp is supplied by solar and gas, there are no conventional plugs. Each tent has a private braai area, as well as shaded, gated parking.

Please see the individual desert tent descriptions and photographs below, to assist you with your choice.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.
