Elephant Plains Game Lodge If spacious luxury and incredible African style is your definition of a fantastic getaway, look no further than the Elephant Plains Game Lodge.
Elephant Plains Game Lodge is ideally situated within the Sabi Sand Game Reserve, which covers approximately 65 000 hectares, and is part of the 2.2 million hectare Greater Kruger National Park. Although the Manyeleti River only flows in years of particularly high rainfall, it provides a stunning backdrop for the lodge, together with the 4500 hectares of diverse habitats that range from clay-based plains and hilly woodland interspersed with dolerite ridges to mature riverine areas. Fauna and Flora of all variety are therefore plentiful. Although the river may be dry, the lodge overlooks another huge watering hole, and the movements of the animals are captured live on an Africam wildlife camera.g fireplace.

The remoteness of the lodge makes Elephant Plains the ideal spot for star gazing. View constellations such as the Southern Cross and Scorpion and find out interesting facts about nebulas and clusters.
Safaris
At Elephant Plains Game Lodge you can be sure of game drives and bush walks that will live up to the Africa of your imagination! Not only will you have an excellent chance of close encounters with the Big 5, but you may even be spoiled with the more elusive wild dog and cheetah sightings. As the lodge is situated on a dry riverbed, the surrounding habitat is favourable for leopards, as these creatures enjoy the riverine and denser bush areas.
