Skukuza, situated on the southern banks of the Sabie River, is the park's largest rest camp and administrative headquarters.
As in inside the camp / village :shock:

Kruger National Park

Day 22 (17 April) of #SALockdown in Skukuza camp was clean & fresh after the welcome rain from the previous night. These pics taken from the camp of hippo mom and calf in the Sabie River, which was quite full. I could almost hear the mom saying "stay close and you will be fine".
