Welcome to Sondaba Bush Camp

Situated within the Pongola Game Reserve, Sondaba is named after the highest hill in the reserve. Of all the reserve’s camps, Sondaba inspires the strongest sense of remoteness.

Reached after a 4 km drive from the Pongola Game Reserve Leeukop Gate, the camp is located in rugged hill country.

Sondaba accommodates 12 people in 6 A-framed thatched huts which are reached along raised boardwalks. Reed lined en suite showers and toilets add to the rustic atmosphere.

Lighting is solar powered and the stove, fridge, freezer and geysers operate on gas. Sondaba has its own swimming pool and braai facilities.

Sondaba is booked exclusively to one group at a time.
