About
Leopard Hills Private Game Reserve is an exclusive five-star safari lodge located in the western sector of the renowned Sabi Sand Nature Reserve in South Africa, bordering the world-famous Kruger National Park. The reserve spans over 10,000 hectares of diverse ecosystems, allowing for exceptional wildlife viewing as there are no fences between Sabi Sand and Kruger. The lodge itself is spectacularly situated atop a rocky outcrop, offering magnificent panoramic views over the African bush and an active natural waterhole below. It is approximately a five-hour drive east of Johannesburg, with GPS coordinates of S 24° 47' 32.8" E 31° 22' 04.8".The lodge features eight newly renovated and exquisitely decorated glass-fronted, air-conditioned suites, each designed for ultimate luxury and privacy. These spacious suites boast private plunge pools, sundecks, and breathtaking views of the bushveld. Each includes a comfortable lounge area, world-class amenities, and romantic bathrooms with both indoor and outdoor showers. Guests can enjoy fine dining with outstanding cuisine prepared from fresh, local ingredients, served on the main deck for breakfast, under shady umbrellas for lunch, and often under the stars in a traditional Shangaan boma for dinner.Activities at Leopard Hills focus on immersive wildlife experiences. Knowledgeable rangers conduct early morning and late afternoon/evening game drives in state-of-the-art Land Rovers, searching for the Big Five—Elephant, Lion, Rhino, Buffalo, and Leopard—which abound in the area. Guided walking safaris are also available, offering a chance to explore the smaller flora and fauna of the bushveld. Additional activities in the surrounding area include helicopter flights over the Blyde River Canyon, elephant interactions, cultural village tours, hot air ballooning, and golf at Leopard Creek. The lodge also provides facilities such as a main swimming pool, a well-stocked library with internet access, a curio shop, a wine cellar, and a glass-walled massage sala and gym overlooking the tranquil bush. Leopard Hills is committed to social investment, supporting a day care centre for underprivileged children in the local village and contributing to anti-poaching efforts within the Sabi Sand Wildtuin.
