Welcome to Kampersrus, a charming village where you can sometimes hear lions roar on a quiet night and breathe in the fresh mountain air. Nestled in the secluded foothills of Mariepskop Mountain, this historic town offers breathtaking views and a sense of peace that makes it a perfect retreat. Kampersrus lies within a UNESCO-declared biosphere that connects to the Kruger National Park, the Drakensberg escarpment, and the famous Blyde River Canyon—the third largest canyon in the world. This unique location places you close to some of South Africa’s most spectacular natural wonders, as well as several nature reserves and birding hotspots. The nearby Blyde Dam is home to the rare Kadishi Tufa Waterfall, one of the few waterfalls of its kind in the world. Whether you’re here for game drives, birdwatching, or simply to enjoy the mountain views, Kampersrus offers a perfect balance of nature and small-town hospitality. Just under 30 km from Hoedspruit, the village has convenient shops, restaurants, and pubs, and serves as an ideal base for day trips into the Kruger area or the Blyde Canyon region.
