    Activities

    With more than 75,000 hectares of protected territory, Madikwe Game Reserve is the fourth largest game reserve in South Africa which ensures visitors a diverse and thrilling wildlife adventure. Home to the Big 5, cheetah, wild dog, and up to 350 different bird species, the reserve is additionally known to have the second largest elephant population.

    Lelapa Lodge offers different ways in which to explore its magnificent surrounds and the animals which roam in its territory. From twice daily game drives hosted by expert rangers to guided bush walks and fascinating bird watching. Lelapa Lodge guides have diverse, specialist skills including photography, birding, astronomy, and tracking which they will share with you, adding immense value to your experience.

    Additional activities include visits to local villages and the astronomy ecology house. Evenings at this luxury safari lodge are no less exciting. Night time game viewing with large spotlights gives you a glimpse into the existence and habits of nocturnal creatures. Secluded from the city lights, a spectacular blanket of stars fills the sky for remarkable nightly stargazing.

    Skilfully prepared cuisine is served in a showcase of natural splendour as meals are savoured under the night sky in a setting lit up romantically by lanterns, or next to a crackling fire in the cozy lodge dining room.

    With special children’s activities and world-class luxury, the entire family is guaranteed to have an adventure of a lifetime.
