Nkorho Bush Lodge – Sabi Sands Private Game Reserve (KNP), South Africa

Overview

Sabi Sand Game Reserve, the “birthplace” of sustainable wilderness tourism and development in Sub-Saharan Africa, loved by by guests and staff alike as a place of wilderness, wildlife and adventure. Home to the extensive Mpumalanga cross-section of wildlife, including the Big Five and various endangered species, the park also shares 50 kilometres of its unfenced boundary line with neighbouring Kruger National Park. Animals pass casually between the two parks, unhindered and abundant.

Nkorho Bush Lodge, located in the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, is home to an incredible diversity of wildlife, as well as being an established African bushveld getaway – a comfortable nature-environment, where guests can take in some bird watching, or relax in the comfort of their chalets, all the time immersed in the bush experience that is Nkorho Bush Lodge.

This is truly an idyllic setting for solo travellers, groups of friends, families and couples.

Accommodation

Six en-suite thatched chalets are available for accommodation at Nkorho, hosting up to twelve guests. These four-star rated units include a hearty breakfast enjoyed under a thatched deck, dinner around a fire at the leadwood boma, bar facilities, a rock pool, and a laundry service.

Wildlife

To be spotted in the Nkorho area are local rhino, leopard, lion, elephant, buffalo, hippo and crocodile groups, as well as various other general game, and more than 450 bird species.
