Description

Nestled in a mountainous amphitheatre, at the highest point in the Waterberg, lies Griffons Bush Camp.

Griffons Bush Camp offers an exclusive yet private bush camp where visitors can unwind and relax, within Marakele National Park. Please note this is a bush camp and not a luxury game lodge.

Guests have a choice of 4 thatched, chalets, which were built from the natural stone of the area, and some of the chalets have wooden decks. One of the chalets has been furnished with a king-size bed as well as a single bed, and the other chalets have 2 to 3 single beds. Each chalet has an adjoining ablution facility which consists of a shower, a toilet and a basin. The ablutions are walled by poles, with open skies for lovely star views. Some of the ablutions do have canvas roofs for those who are less adventurous. Each chalet has a heater and its own coffee station. The units are serviced daily. For cooking, there is a fully equipped communal kitchen with a fridge, gas stoves, cutlery and crockery as well as cooking utensils. Our new family unit (for 4 people), has it's own small kitchen.

Set in a fig and acacia forest, visitors can participate in various guided nature trails ranging from leisurely and relaxed to more demanding and steep. In summer, the mountain streams offer pools for hikers to cool off in. Guided game drives or self-drive options into Marakele National Park are also available, but please note a high clearance vehicle is recommended for some of the roads.

For the birders, various bird species can be seen in the area, and includes the large Cape Griffon colony, the Orange-breasted bushshrike and the White-crested Helmetshrike. The Black-chested Snake Eagle, the Gymnogene and Brown Snake Eagle have also been seen. Various animals such as buck, baboons, monkeys as well as civets, lions, leopards and hyena can also be seen.
