Timbavati Nature Reserve is a private game reserve found in the Lowveld region of South Africa. The 53000-hectare reserve shares an unfenced boundary with the famous Kruger National Park, allowing wildlife species to move freely between the parks. The Timbavati ecosystem is made up of open, undulating savannah woodland hills and dense thickets of mopane trees. These habitats support a thriving diversity of wildlife species, including the legendary African Big 5. Elephant and buffalo herds are seen regularly, and the chances of seeing the elusive leopard are fairly high. The Timbavati’s biggest drawcard is its low density of lodges and camps, meaning that it is much less crowded than other busier reserves in the Kruger Lowveld region.
The handful of lodges in the Timbavati provides accommodation options to suit various guest preferences. These include self-catering, budget-friendly lodges, mid-range tented camps, and super-luxury lodges.
Walker’s River Camp is a self-catering lodge that caters for families and groups. It accommodates 10 guests (the whole camp must be booked by guests). It features comfortable en-suite accommodation, a pool, boma and kitchen.
Umlani Bush Camp is a charming mid-range safari camp, offering rustic yet comfortable accommodation that truly helps you to reconnect with nature. A full range of facilities and amenities ensure a comfortable stay, including en-suite bathrooms, outdoor showers, beds with crisp linen and mosquito net drapings, a pool, bar, and outdoor boma.
For those who want to experience the magic of the bush in the ultimate style, Kings Camp is an excellent super-luxury option in the Timbavati. It features facilities such as a pool, spa, gym, library, and WiFi access; the spectacular suites are air-conditioned and lavishly furnished.
