The Outpost lies in a vast wilderness area in the northernmost part of Kruger National Park rich in historical and cultural heritage.
Italian born architect Enrico Daffonchio designed The Outpost. Using simple, clean lines and combining elements of steel, concrete and open space, the unashamedly contemporary design of The Outpost emphasises its beautiful surrounds but blends and preserves the wilderness that is its home.
It is home to large herds of elephant and buffalo and the mountainous terrain is attractive to leopard and the region has resident prides of lion. Possible sightings of these and many other mammals and birds can be enjoyed during morning and afternoon game drives.
Guided tours are also available to Crooks Corner, where in the late 19th century, the infamous Ivory Route passed, which acquired its name from the number of outlaws living there. Situated right where South Africa. Zimbabwe and Mozambique meet, it was an ideal place for fugitives to just slip across one of the borders and take refuge in a foreign territory when the authorities came searching for them.
