Nossob Rest Camp









Nossob Rest Camp is situated on the banks of the dry Nossob River which forms the Eastern South African boundary of the Park with Botswana, even though the park extends well into Botswana beyond this point. This section of the Park is famous for its incredible predator sightings in the tree and savannah covered bush land.

Another common aspect of this region is the seasonal movement of large game such as blue wildebeest, springbok, eland and red hartebeest. Two more of the park’s more prominent species, which are often found running around the camps, are the Ground Squirrel and occasionally the Meerkat. You will have an excellent chance of seeing cheetah, leopard, brown and spotted hyena and the definitive black-manned lion in this area.

Nossob Camp and its surrounds exhibit a blend of bird species typical of the other camps, and have the added attraction of a wide variety of raptor species.

The camp has a reception, predator information centre, shop and fuel facilities. Electricity is provided by a generator 18 hrs per day. There is no phone reception available at the camp so for those visitors looking for a break away from the modern day and cell phones, this is the place to visit.

Nossob offers visitors to the Kgalagadi 2 Guesthouses, a range of different size cottages and camping sites to suit a variety of needs and budgets
