About Pretoriuskop
Pretoriuskop is Kruger's oldest rest camp (1928), set in high-rainfall Malelane Mountain Bushveld with rocky outcrops and dense vegetation. It was the site of the first white rhino reintroduction to Kruger in 1961 and remains the best camp for white and black rhino, sable antelope, and eland. The camp has a classic rock swimming pool that has been a highlight since the 1930s.
