..................................................
Located within the Karongwe Game Reserve, with Kruger National Park and the major points of interest in Limpopo and Mpumalanga within driving distance, is a collection of fine family owned lodges. Bordered by the towering Drakensberg escarpment on the west and set in game-rich, lush vegetation, this splendid game reserve offers a variety of breathtaking views, diverse landscapes and an unrivalled African Safari experience with the opportunity of seeing the ‘Big Five’ (lion, leopard, rhino, elephant, buffalo).

KARONGWE RIVER LODGE
The lodge offers a choice of 11 extremely spacious and air-conditioned suites, including luxury, executive and family suites, overlooking the Makhutsi River. Between the scheduled morning and afternoon game activities, spend time relaxing by the pool or watching the game from your own balcony. Delicious Pan African cuisine awaits you here as you dine under the stars, weather permitting, in a rustic outdoor Boma or in the dining room. Children over four years of age are welcome on the game drives.
