Sir Percy Fitzpatrick roamed these giant rock walls with his dog, Jock of the Bushveld. He wrote: "a place to rest and dream, where there is neither stir nor sound". But there are sounds: the roaring of a lion, the shussh shussh as a herd of elephant moves through the valleys below, the cough of a leopard and the grunts of buffalo as they move through the 8 000 hectare Mthethomusha Game Reserve, an exclusive extension of the Kruger National Park.
 

Bongani has 20 chalets, nine suites and one Presidential suite. The rooms are spread out across the mountain ridge and surrounded by impressive outcrops of granite. All the chalets and suites have a verandah and en suite bathroom with air-conditioning and ceiling fans. Suites are ideal for families with small children as there are sleeper couches in the lounge area.

The Presidential Suite, also known as the Madiba Suite, is exceptional, with a large private lounge, a sweeping view of the valley below and a kitchen for private dining (not self-catering). The name is inspired by Nelson Mandela who favours the lodge as a holiday retreat. Madiba is Mr Mandela's clan name, and the name by which he is affectionately known throughout South Africa.

Arriving at Bongani, the first thing you see is a bank of mammoth granite rocks. Like a gateway to another world, this narrow natural rock passage is the only access to the lodge reception. Local legend holds that walking through this rock crevice will enhance your fertility.

Central guest areas overlook a timber game viewing deck and have breathtaking views of the imposing Lebombo and Malalane Mountain ranges. The lodge has a lounge, bar, well stocked curio shop and inviting swimming pool.

Game Viewing:
Africa's most impressive wildlife can be enjoyed during morning and evening game drives in open Land Rovers with expert rangers, at your own cost. The evening drives are spotlit and offer insights into the activities of nocturnal animals including leopard, civet and genet.

Activities include nature walks exploring the wealth of San (Bushman) rock art sites for which the area is famous. Bongani also has a strong cultural tourism program.
