Kingly Conservation Camp

This camp offers more than just a getaway; it is an opportunity to immerse yourself in the African bush while making a positive impact on conservation. Set amid dense mopane woodlands, Kingly Conservation Camp provides an authentic, back-to-roots safari experience tailored for groups of friends, families, or like-minded explorers passionate about wildlife and wilderness preservation. The camp is steeped in history, located on land once owned by a visionary cattle farmer who cultivated a thriving enterprise by breeding cattle and transporting them by train. Over time, recognizing the area’s ecological significance, the land was restored to its natural state and integrated into the greater Kruger ecosystem. Today, this conservation area plays a vital role in protecting the region’s flora and fauna, ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come. With elephants frequently seen near the camp’s water pan, guests can enjoy incredible wildlife sightings from the comfort of the camp. Kingly Conservation Camp combines an immersive outdoor lifestyle with uncompromising comfort, offering a sanctuary for both adventurers and wildlife alike. By supporting the camp, you contribute to vital conservation efforts, helping to preserve Africa’s natural heritage. Join us for an unforgettable journey into the heart of the African wilderness, where your stay makes a meaningful difference.
