Camping at Twee Rivieren Camp
Visitors may enter and exit the park from South Africa through the gate at Twee Rivieren and a full service border post is operational in the reception area. The border post do not keep the same hours as the gate, so visitors are advised to obtain the office hours from the personnel of the border post to avoid delays. Should visitors want to exit the park into Botswana or Namibia, they must stay at least two nights inside the park.
Fuel is available at a service station situated between the camping sites and the reception office. The fuel service station usually opens simultaneously with the gates and closes a short while after the gates.
General Information about Twee Rivieren Camp
Twee Rivieren also provides accommodation in chalets ranging from two sleepers to family cottages hosting six people. Each chalet features a bathroom [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], kitchen and air-conditioner.
Campsites are gravel with no grass. The sites are relatively level, but on the smallish side. Each campsite has a fireplace with a light attached and taps for water is placed close to the campsites. Several campsites have cement benches and a table. Most campsites have electrical outlets, but confusion tends to reign when the campsites are fully booked. Campers will need a blue caravan adapter socket to access the electricity, which is available twenty- four hours a day.
A well- stocked shop caters to most of visitors needs, including ice-cream in summer to beat the forty degree Celsius heat, and sells a variety of curios, books and clothing. The restaurant serves traditional food as well as cosmopolitan dishes and the food is well priced and tasteful. Reservations for the restaurant must be done in advance at the reception desk.
Ablution facilities include a scullery for washing dishes and a laundry. The washing lines are inside the walls built around the ablution facilities and partly obscured from view.
Fuel, Shop, Restaurant, Information Center and Cellular Phone Reception At Twee Rivieren
Twee Rivieren is the only main camp in the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park with mobile phone reception. Once visitors drive into the park [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], this reception is lost just after the Confluence waterhole about ten kilometers into the park.
The water at the camp is brackish and tourists must provide their own drinking water. Internal roads in the park are not suitable for sedans and are heavily corrugated at places, but the South African National Parks Board is attending to this problem.
During the summer heat, visitors can cool off in the swimming pool behind the restaurant. Although on the smallish side, it is clean and neat.
During the school holidays [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], the campsites can be noisy due to the surrounding population outside the park and the the traffic using the road next to the campsites to access the park.
Chalets at Twee Rivieren
The Twee Rivieren Camp on the South African side of the Kgalagadi Transfrontier Park nestles on the banks of the dry Nossob riverbed on the southern boundary with Botswana. The surrounding Kalahari Dune vegetation provide food and shelter for a number of desert herbivores like Springbok, Giraffe, Oryx, Blue Wildebeest and Steenbok as well as the predators who prey on these animals. Lion, leopard, cheetah and hyena sightings are common in the area.
Guests should also consider alternative accommodation offered by the South Africa
