Sitalike Public Campsite — Budget Bush Camping in Katavi
Sitalike Public Campsite is a TANAPA (Tanzania National Parks Authority) public campsite in Katavi National Park. Like all public campsites in Tanzania's parks, it offers a basic but functional pitch in the heart of the wildlife area — communal facilities, no catering, full self-catering required. It gives budget travellers and overlanders access to Katavi's extraordinary wildlife without the premium lodge cost. All park fees apply on top of camping fees.
Bring all food, water and camping equipment. Wildlife moves through the campsite area freely.
