Situated on 36,000 acres of African bushveld bordering the scenic banks of the Nbesi River, Moditlo Private Game Reserve offers a range of luxurious wildlife encounters and African safari options specially tailored for the discerning traveller. Moditlo River Lodge sits at the heart of the Blue Canyon Conservancy, a stretch of protected land in close proximity to the world-renowned Greater Kruger National Park and is home to an astonishing array of fauna and flora. Named for the gentle beast of the bushveld, Moditlo means ‘place of the elephant’, and the quiet grace of this extraordinary creature echoes throughout the lodge and its surroundings. Our 18-bedroom lodge was designed to combine the rustic nature of a bushveld retreat with the style and elegance you’d expect of a first-rate safari destination. Visitors can look forward to every comfort and convenience, including game drives conducted by passionate, knowledgeable nature guides; a full-service restaurant that serves the very best in South African wines and cuisine; as well as al fresco boma barbeques prepared by our talented chefs. Families with kids will be happy to know that we welcome children of 8 years and older. Youngsters can partake in a special activity plan to increase their wildlife knowledge and are also allowed on game drives at the manager’s discretion. Alternatively, we are happy to arrange a private vehicle for your family’s exclusive use. Don’t delay. Book your safari at Moditlo River Lodge today and prepare to be transported to a world of unspoilt beauty, where luxury meets rustic splendour.

Moditlo Private Game Reserve is set at the foot of the famous Drakensberg mountain range within the Blue Canyon Conservancy adjacent to the Greater Kruger National Park. Moditlo Private Game Reserve is a popular retreat and the perfect bush-getaway. Moditlo is definitely one of South Africa’s prime wildlife areas and the approximately 16500 hectares of pristine African bush is home to some of Africa’s most sought after wildlife such as Lions, Elephants, Leopards, Rhinos, Cheetahs, Hippos and several hundreds of bird species typical to the Lowveld. The reserve is also home to a pack of Wild Dogs, which is the second rarest carnivore species in Africa with only an estimated 2000 remaining specimen in existence. Blue Canyon Conservancy offers one of the richest bio-diversities one can find in the whole of Africa. The vegetation is made up of two main Eco-zones, the Northern thornveld and Southern bush-willow woodlands. The reserve’s numerous lakes, perennial streams, dams, abundance of large trees along the river beds, the mountain view of the Drakensberg, rich and varied wildlife as well as unrivaled natural beauty make the Moditlo Game Reserve an unforgettable safari destination.
