Up to now accommodation consisted of six-berth caravans, also known as “Chalavans” by Bontebok Park insiders, fitted with basic kitchen equipment and sharing communal facilities. In addition the Park offers a beautiful camping site, considered as on of the better ones among the many South African National Parks camping sites, but with no electricity.
