For a quieter and more relaxed entry into Kruger National Park, we always recommend Malelane Gate, located just 20.5 km from Mjejane. While Crocodile Bridge Gate is another option at 28.5 km away, Malelane offers a smoother and less crowded start to your wildlife adventure.

Avoid the chaos of hunting for a pen at reception—download the Gate Registration Form below and breeze through the entrance at Kruger National Park. Because the only fights you should witness are between lions and hyenas, not you and a fellow traveler over a ballpoint pen!

Grab a map at reception to guide your journey! For a full-day adventure, take a scenic drive to Skukuza Golf Club for a leisurely lunch, then return and exit through Crocodile Bridge Gate. If you prefer a shorter drive, explore the backroads leading to Afsaal Picnic Site for a delicious breakfast or brunch, then make your way back to exit through the quieter Malelane Gate. Whatever your choice, every route promises incredible wildlife sightings!
