Madikwe Game Reserve is a 75 000-hectare malaria-free reserve located North-West of Johannesburg along the Botswana border. It doesn’t take much to be enamoured by Madikwe. Rightfully so, this hidden- gem is regarded as one of the best conservation areas in Africa. Everything about this place is vast – its landscapes, its heavens, its wildlife. This is rugged Africa, and then some!
The rich and undulating landscape is punctuated by enormous volcanic intrusions (known as Inselbergs) and the unique topography reveals astonishing wildlife sightings. Madikwe’s animal population includes the Big Five (lion, leopard, elephant, rhino and buffalo), cheetah, spotted hyena, giraffe, antelope, Brown hyena, aardwolf and the endangered Cape hunting dog. More than 300 resident and migrant bird species tint the ample skies. Get up close and personal with the spectacular wildlife Madikwe has to offer as the qualified guides of the various luxury lodges are permitted to drive off-road.
