Following a fire incident reported this morning, 21 April 2026 affecting the retail shop at Lower Sabie rest camp in the Kruger National Park, guests with bookings at the camp are advised to stock-up on supplies before arrival or get supplies e.g. wood, ice etc. at the other camps such as Skukuza, Crocodile Bridge, Satara, Tshokwane or Nkuhlu.

 Accommodation has not been affected with the camp fully booked for the upcoming two long weekends, 27 April and 1^st May 2026. Activities such as guided game drives and walks are continuing as normal.

 Although the restaurant did not suffer any fire damage, it will remain closed due to power cuts affected by the fire. A temporary retail, food and beverage services will be implemented as soon as possible.
