If you need to buy your own Kruger Park map (rather than printing the one on this page for free), you'll find high level Kruger maps within the pages of South African road atlases.

The general stores in Kruger National Park sell much more detailed maps, some of which are part of Kruger guide books. If you hold out on buying your map until you get to the park, these Kruger guide books make for nice little souvenirs.

Don't want to carry any map with you at all? Then no need to worry. There are maps and location plans at all of the rest camps, picnic spots and entrance gates around the park. On top of this, the general road signs within the park are very easy to follow.
