On the far northern border of South Africa, adjacent to Botswana, lies the stark, enchanting beauty of the Groot Marico. Not only is this now home to South Africa’s fourth largest game reserve, but is here that Tau Game Lodge is situated.
Tau – place of the lion – is located in the heart of the 75 000 hectare Madikwe Reserve. This malaria-free Reserve has been restored to its original rugged beauty and ecological diversity with the re-introduction of over 10 000 head of game in what has been the world’s largest game relocation programme, called Operation Phoenix.
All the “big Five” – Elephant, Buffalo, Rhino, Lion and Leopard – now abound amongst the dramatic ridges of the Dwarsberg Mountains and Tshwene-Tshwene hills.
Safari With Us
The Madikwe Reserve boasts complex and diverse habitats and ecosystems. There are 27 species of mammals to be seen, including black and white rhino, elephant, lion, buffalo, cheetah and even the endangered wild dog. Twice daily, your expert guide will take you on a game viewing drive in an open 4x4 vehicle to let you experience Madikwe’s many wonders.
Our Facilities
Comfort and privacy abound in the recently redecorated 30 air-conditioned luxury chalets. Overlooking a waterhole and true African bushveld, enjoy spectacular sunsets from your own deck and experience the million wonders of the milky way from the privacy of your outdoor shower.
