South African National Parks (SANParks) has confirmed that the restaurant at Letaba Rest Camp in the heart of Kruger National Park is currently undergoing planned renovations. While the project will temporarily reduce normal seating capacity, visitors can rest assured that sit-down meals and full dining services will still be available throughout the renovation period. The upgrade is scheduled to continue until 31 October 2025, ensuring improved facilities for future guests.
Situated on the scenic southern bank of the Letaba River, Letaba Rest Camp takes its name from the Sesotho word for “sandy river.” Its central location - just 51 km from the Phalaborwa Gate - makes Letaba Rest Camp an ideal stopover for travellers exploring both the northern and southern regions of Kruger National Park. Guests can look forward to a variety of amenities including the riverside Tindlovu Restaurant, a well-stocked shop, laundromat, slimline ATM, fuel station, swimming pools (one for day visitors), and even a conference center.
A highlight of Letaba Rest Camp is the Elephant Hall Museum, a fascinating attraction dedicated to elephant biology, evolution, and Kruger National Park's legendary Magnificent Seven tuskers. Featuring immersive 3D displays, anatomical exhibits, and rare tusk and skull collections - including that of the famous tusker Mandleve - the museum remains one of Kruger National Park's most popular cultural and educational experiences.
With its unique combination of wildlife viewing, family-friendly facilities, and rich educational offerings, Letaba Rest Camp continues to be one of Kruger National Park's most popular rest camps.
