Situated in the heart of the game rich malaria free Welgevonden Private Game Reserve, Ekuthuleni and sister lodge Tshwene invite you to savour true luxury in the heart of Africa. Ekuthuleni Lodge, place of peace with its sweeping views of the savannah plains is home to game such as rhino and many species of antelope. With five en suite chalets, Ekuthuleni Lodge intimacy and privacy are the order of the day. Each suite has magnificent views of the grasslands and gives a whole new meaning to nature on your doorstep.

Bathrooms are exceptional with both indoor and private outdoor showers. Less than a kilometer away, you find Tshwene Lodge surrounded by rocky outcrops. This is a secluded oasis in the rugged valley of the Taaibos River. The Chacma baboon, after which the lodge is named, calls late at night to alert of pending danger. Rich in bird life Tshwene offers peace and tranquility for those seeking to get away from it all. The six strategically located suites of Ekuthuleni Lodge all offer exhilarating views of the valleys below and the hills beyond.

Two daily game drives (safaris) are conducted by experienced rangers who will provide intimate details of the flora, fauna and birdlife that abounds and is so unique to the Waterberg. Watch the morning sun scribble intriguing patterns across the veld and contemplate the days journey. Enjoy an early morning game drive (safari) and watch Africa awaken in front of your eyes. Then head home for a scrumptious breakfast before settling down for your midday siesta.

After sundowner drinks, allow the darkness of the African bush to envelop you on your evening game drive (safari). Nightlife abounds in the African bush and dangers lurk everywhere. Lions on the hunt and leopards stalking prey in the cover of darkness are truly magnificent sights to behold. Be a part of this in this truly spectacular reserve that is Welgevonden.
