About Marataba Mountain Lodge

At a Glance

What to expect at the lodge/reserve

  • All meals included
  • All of the Big 5
  • Guided game drives included
  • Malaria-free area
  • Conservation fee applicable

The lodge is cleverly situated on the hillside at the bottom of Waterfall Valley in the Marakele National Park. It is surrounded by mountain streams, the source of the Matlabas River (which flows into the mighty Limpopo River, and eventually into the Indian Ocean).

The area surrounding the lodge has sweet savannah grasslands in the valley below, and broadleaved sour veld habitat on the hills above, while some of the gorges are filled with riverine forest habitats.

All units have spectacular views down into Waterfall Valley, which is particularly magical at sunset!

Facilities

This is the place for the person who is after a “Digital Detox', wanting to disconnect completely. With neither Wi-Fi nor cellphone reception the sun shares just enough of its energy to power selected equipment such as cameras, iPads and phones to ensure they are always at the ready to capture another glorious day.

With the absence of modern amenities and technology, the Lodge is utterly remote, promising authentic exclusivity where you are one-on-one with Nature.

A number of Trails are available, including Riverine, Gorge, Mountain and Interest Trails.

Loadshedding Facilities

What is loadshedding? It refers to the temporary suspension of electricity provided by Eskom, South Africa's electricity provider, to reduce consumption and thereby the load on the national grid. To compensate, South African property owners are turning to solar power, inverters with backup batteries or in some cases generators to keep the power on, wherever feasible.
