The pervasive Mopani tree found in the Pioneer Dam area of Kruger National Park lends both its aesthetic and its name to this primary rest camp. Thatched buildings with rock-faced walls blend seamlessly into the natural environment, materials used to construct these buildings include rough stone, wood, and thatching grass. Mopani is also great for families. It has a large collection of family cottages available for families of different sizes.
Mopani Rest Camp offers adventure in the form of guided bush walks and safari game drives, all under the supervision of well informed and keen professional field guides. There is also an in-camp trail walk.
Important to note: children under the age of six years old are not permitted on the safari game vehicle and children under the age of twelve years old are restricted from guided bush walks
Other attractions include the Shipandane sleep-over Bird-Hide, the Pioneer Dam Bird Hide, the tropic of Capricorn, and wildlife films screened at reception, during office hours, daily. Recently added to this list is the Sunset Drive-Boma Combo.
Facilities at the camp include: Information at the reception area, public telephones, post box, restaurant with mini ATM facility, ladies bar, cafeteria, shop, laundromat, filling station, car wash, basic on-site first-aid assistance, a day visitor picnic area, swimming pool and cell phone reception.

Great service from Denise at Safari.com
Denise from Safari.com was extremely helpful. She responded promptly, provided good advice on safari lodgings options and worked up a couple of itinerary options to suit our budget. Denise also organised flights and transfers very quickly so that we could finalize our booking in a short time. Much appreciated.

Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
Pascal John at Safari.com guided me on different safari lodges (experience, rating), and most importantly knew about specials (buy 3 nights, get 4th for free) which allowed my family to secure a 5-star location at a more reasonable rate. Great advice, responsive and knowledgeable!
