Intro

An untamed African experience awaits at Nkomazi Private Game Reserve, surrounded by towering moutains, broad river valleys and impressive grasslands. This piece of land, south-west of the Kruger National Park, stretched out over 15 000 hectares, is home to a diverse ecosystem that supports both Highveld and Lowveld game species, as well as an abundance of birdlife. This makes for spectacular game viewing and a unique safari experience.

At the Komati Tented Lodge, true tranquility is found. The lodge is characterised by the Komati River which continuously emits a gentle rumble. This reminder of one's proximity to nature complements the tranquil atmosphere that is felt throughout Nkomazi Private Game Reserve. Steeped in history, the reserve is home to some of the oldest rock formations on earth, embellished by ancient San rock art.
