Lodge Activities |
|
For our younger visitors we arrange early morning walks to learn how to track game & identify “spoor”, & pass on useful information about the more common game on the farm. We also have a range of wild life videos to keep everyone enthralled on those rare occasions when we get adverse weather. |
|
Special short walks can be arranged, where we will inevitably find an ants’ nest, probably some lizards, maybe a beetle or two, & possibly even a scorpion. And of course there is the jungle gym complete with swings, a slide, rope ladder, etc. Our “Kids” Lounge is equipped with a TV, board games, puzzles, storybooks and colouring books. Push bikes are also available for the small fry. Older kids are also welcome to bring their bikes along to ride on the roads around the Lodge. |
|
The birdlife is prolific, with over 200 different types of birds having been spotted in the vicinity.
These include secretary birds, barn & pearl spotted owls, hamerkop, hoopoe, red crested korhaan, woodland kingfisher, yellow-billed & grey hornbills, guinea fowl & francolin to name just a few. Many can be seen in the vicinity of the lodge & at the water hole close to the lodge. |

Guests are encouraged to participate in our daily game drives, which usually last approximately 2 hours in either the morning, or late afternoon and early evening.
Guests who prefer to explore the bush on foot may do so on their own or with a guide, along our clearly marked game trails.
Examples of the wildlife that you could encounter include: blesbuck, bush babies, caracal, civets, duiker, genets, hares, honey badgers, impala, jackal, kudu, leopard tortoises, mongooses, ostrich, porcupines, red hartebeest, scorpions, spiders, steenbok, warthogs, waterbuck, wildebeest, & zebra. Guests are welcome to spend time viewing game from the hide at the waterhole. |
