Berg-en-Dal Camp's location in Kruger National Park, in a ruggedly beautiful mountainous terrain, makes for pleasant weather all year round. The summer months are hot with occasional bursts of quick summer storms, which cools the air and settles the dust. Winters are warm and mild.

The new Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport is just 25km (15.53 miles) from Nelspruit, half an hour's drive from the Melalane Gate. Or, if you are up for it, take a mere 5 hours scenic drive from Johannesburg.
