About halfway between the rest camps at Satara and Skukuza, or between Lower Sabie and Satara, Tshokwane has been transformed from an attractive picnic spot into a genuine stopover as you move between central and southern Kruger. The restaurant serves light meals, such as wors roll or kudu wors, jaffles and homemade pies, as well as other sausages off the braai and salads.
