About Shipandani Overnight Hide

Shipandani Overnight Hide sits beside the Tsendze River about 3 km south of Mopani Camp, offering an unusual chance to experience Kruger from a purpose-built wildlife hide. By day it functions as a bird and game-viewing hide, while at night it becomes a basic overnight shelter where guests can experience the sounds and activity of the surrounding bush after dark. The area is particularly known for large buffalo herds and elephant bulls, with hippos and crocodiles also using the nearby water.
