About Hoedspruit
Hoedspruit is a small town on the western edge of the Greater Kruger with its own airport, Eastgate, served by scheduled flights from Johannesburg and Cape Town. It is the nearest town to the private reserves of Timbavati, Klaserie and Balule, and to Kruger's Orpen Gate. Wildlife wanders right up to the edge of town, and the Hoedspruit Endangered Species Centre and the Blyde River Canyon on the Panorama Route are both within easy reach.
