Biyamiti Camp is situated on the bank of the Biyamiti River. Biyamiti is an intimate and secluded bush camp offering luxurious lodging out in the bush. The surrounding vegetation is mixed woodland with heavier growth and sizable trees along the river.
Biyamiti Camp is situated 26km (16 miles) from the Crocodile Bridge gate and only 12km (7 miles) from the N4. Biyamiti Camp forms part of a relatively new concept in bush lodges in the Kruger National Park. Smaller, more luxurious camps are built in the more remote areas of the Park.
One of its attractions is that Biyamiti Camp is private which means that only residents are allowed in the camp and on the access roads to the camp. Each of the smaller camps are situated within easy reach of the larger rest camps so that guests can make use of the larger camps amenities if needed.
The new Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport is just 25km (15.5 miles) from Nelspruit. Skukuza airport services charter flights.

Rhinoceros have very poor eyesight. In fact, they cannot see a person standing motionless if they are more than 30m away. Since its eyes are on opposite sides of its head, the Rhinoceros must look with one eye at a time to see straight ahead.
