Tsendze provides a rustic experience within the natural environment. The campsites are laid out in a rough figure of eight under and around stands of ancient and beautiful Leadwood, Mopane and Apple Leaf trees. Two prominent seasonal water courses, the Tsendze River and Nshawu Creek, run through this area that is known for the large buffalo herds and many elephant bulls that occur here. 'Alexander', a current big tusker with rather impressive ivory is often encountered in the area and along the main tarred route between Tsendze and Mopane Rest Camp. With its abundance of large trees in the camp, Tsendze offers great birding opportunities around the campsite. Guests must report at Mopane Camp at least one hour before the gates closes to enter the Tsendze camp. The gate times for Kruger National park is 05:30-18:30(Nov-Feb), 05:30-18:00(Mar, Oct), 06:00-17:30(May-Jul), 06:00-18:00(Apr/Aug-Sept). Kruger National park is a malaria risk area, precautions should be taken.
