It’s a unique blend of rustic charm and natural beauty, tucked away in the upland mountain wetlands near Silvermine Dam within the Table Mountain National Park. Old Silvermine tented camp offers a truly immersive experience, connecting you with the heart of this incredible landscape. The camp is constructed from timber felled and milled within the park itself. This sustainable approach minimizes environmental impact, allowing the camp to blend seamlessly with its surroundings.
