Kruger National Park: Phabeni Gate

Dreamfields Guesthouse is close to 3 entrance gates to the Kruger National Park. The closest gate is Phabeni Gate, which is still called “the new gate”. Phabeni is already open to the public since December 2002, and offers an easy access to the entire southern region.
Phabeni Gate is situated 10 km east of Dreamfields Guesthouse, on the Phabeni River close to where this river joins the Sabie River.
The name Phabeni is a Sotho word meaning “place of shelter or cave”. Made to simulate a Swazi kraal, the central focus of the gate complex is the main hut, where the gate’s reception area is located.
