Addo Main Rest Camp
The popular main rest camp of the Addo Elephant National Park offers a wide variety of accommodation units to suit all tastes and plenty of activities to keep visitors busy. A unique feature is the waterhole lookout point, floodlit at night, within the camp, as well as the underground hide, allowing close encounters with wildlife at the waterhole such as elephant, lion, buffalo and kudu. Accommodation units are situated within easy walking distance of each other and of facilities such as the swimming pool, restaurant and shop. Bookings are made through central reservations. Addo Rest Camp offers adventure in the form of guided horse trails and game drives, all under the supervision of well-informed and keen professional field guides. There is an a-la-carte restaurant in the main camp, serving meals throughout the day.
