Buffalo Ridge Safari Lodge - South Africa - North West Province
Buffalo Ridge Safari Lodge is the first wholly owned, Community-based Safari Lodge to be developed in South Africa. Located in Madikwe Game Reserve, one of the few malaria-free reserves in southern Africa, the lodge is an ecotourism partnership between North-West Parks, the Balete Ba Lekgophung Community and The Nature Workshop. The main lodge is spectacularly located on two tiers of the Tweedepoort Ridge, accessed via a wooden bridge that crosses a ravine surrounded by rock figs. Each of the living areas has its own character, mood and style providing guests with a choice of breathtaking views and tranquil spaces. Whether you are relaxing in the lounge, the lower or upper deck areas or at the pool, you will find a space that suits your mood.
The lodge has 8 suites, each with its own viewing deck, decorated in natural hues of colour and texture, offering a very private and luxurious experience. The thatched suites, with sliding doors from each room and shower allow the guest to experience an oneness with the bushveld. Madikwe Game Reserve is home to a tremendous diversity of fauna and flora, including the black and white rhino, buffalo, elephant, lion, leopard, cheetah and wild dog. The lodge is a superb walking and open vehicle safari destination where guests are accompanied by well-trained and informative rangers who are able to interpret the many encounters whilst on safari.
