PICK YOUR ADVENTURE

Mopane Bush Lodge

Mopane Bush Lodge is set away from the mainstream tourist areas, and adjacent to the Mapungubwe National Park and UNESCO World Heritage site in the northern most region of Limpopo, South Africa.

The Lodge is on the Mapesu Private Game Reserve, a 7200-hectare property surrounded by unique sandstone formations, mopane bushveld and a myriad of wildlife. The reserve focuses on biodiversity, conservation and the protection and reintroduction of species including efforts specifically on endangered animals.

It is the perfect place to have an up close and personal experience of the plentiful wonders of nature in the bush.

Mopane Bush Lodge is also an integral part of the Pearls of Limpopo tour; a collection of luxury lodges designed to offer the best accommodations and adventures in safaris in the Limpopo region of South, and Tuli region of Botswana. Also, just two and a half hours away is the world famous Kruger National Park (Parufi Gate) which makes Mopane Bush Lodge a popular stopover on one’s journey through ancient Africa.
