IMPORTANT ACCESS INFORMATION FOR
SKUKUZA LODGE GUESTS
Please be aware that access to Skukuza Safari Lodge is subject to SANParks’ gate entry times into the Kruger National Park. We kindly ask that you take note of the seasonal gate closure times for Paul Kruger Gate, and ensure you arrive at least 30 minutes before the gate closes.
Gate times vary throughout the year, so it’s essential to check the correct schedule for your month of travel. For added peace of mind, we recommend contacting the Lodge directly to confirm the applicable gate closing time for your arrival date.
If you are entering the Park through a gate other than Paul Kruger Gate, please allow sufficient travel time to reach the Lodge before closing time.
Important:
SANParks strictly enforces gate closure times. If you arrive after the gate has closed or do not have adequate time to travel to the Lodge, you will not be permitted entry. In such cases, you will need to secure alternative accommodation outside the Park at your own cost.
We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in ensuring a smooth arrival.
