Location
Hidden away in the thick bushveld of the Park, one can find Mathyolweni Rest camp, a satellite camp located in the new southern wedge near the small town of Colchester. Mathyolweni Rest camp derives it's name from the Xhosa word which means "in the bush", offering peace and tranquility far away from the hustle and bustle of the city. This area does not have elephants yet, but there are plans to re-introduce elephants, buffalo, eland, red hartebeest and possibly black rhino.
