Unrivalled bush experience

Private camp, private guides and the best of the African Bush.

The “triangle” is a wedge of land created by the confluence of the Limpopo and Luvuvhu at the tripoint Crook’s Corner, which forms a border with Zimbabwe along the Limpopo River. It is a natural choke point for wildlife crossing from North to South and back, and forms a distinct ecological region.

The Pafuri region is famous for its bird watching and more than 250 bird species have been recorded in a year. While comprising only about 1% of the Kruger National Park’s actual area, the area contains plants and animals representing almost 75% of the Parks total diversity

The area is famous for its elephant herds in winter, which come to drink from the Luvuvhu river.

When to Walk

Pafuri is worth visiting any time of the year. The walking trails only run from April-November, as this is when the bush is the least thick. Contact us to reserve your dates!

What to see

While game is plentiful, one is most likely to encounter Nyala, buffalo and Bushbuck in the riverine areas and drier adapted game, including white rhino, in the uplands. The area is famous for its elephant herds in winter, which come to drink from the Luvuvhu river.

Why we like it

Pafuri is possibly our favourite place in Africa! It’s wild, beautiful and best explored on foot. It is also one of South Africa’s best birding spots. Daily flights from Johannesburg to Pafuri Airstrip are available.
