The dramatic landscapes of rolling grass-lands and rugged mountains were once the ancestral hunting grounds of the late Stone Age San people. Today, this region is home for the rhino, lion, leopard, elephant, cape buffalo, sable antelope, zebra and nyala. Bird lovers can marvel at over 350 species by ponds, streams, plains or woods.
Dedicated conservationists monitor our wildlife to ensure that nature's balance is being preserved.
Makweti's main lodge, built into natural rock formations in the craggy Waterburg Mountains, is a dramatic architectural synthesis. Antique African art and furnishings invite you to quietly peruse the African library or settle into a lively conversation. At dusk, gather at the zebra bar to savor a crimson African sunset. Candlelit gourmet dinners are served in the formal dinning room or under the starry night sky in the boma by a flickering campfire. The creative chefs will delight you.
