Book direct at White Elephant Safari Lodge and Bush Camp, Pongola

Description:
Life is a journey, a safari made up of a myriad small, precious moments. In today's hurried world, most of us overlook these little moments along the way. It is these moments that make life happy and worthwhile. We need to re-adjust our focus from the journey's destination to the 'now'. Only then will these precious moments, the simple abundance and the magical simplicities that surround us, become visible.

We at 'White Elephant' invite you to take time to see, feel, hear, sense and savour the small moments, to celebrate them with us, to re-awaken your soul. At 'White Elephant' life is a celebration; a celebration of the moments, of the music and harmonies of nature, of simplicity and beauty, of passion from the soul.

Safari Lodge. Set above the mirrored surface of Lake Jozini at the foot of the Lebombo mountains, our White Elephant Safari Lodge captures the history and romance of the colonial era. Eight luxurious safari tents; each with ball and claw bath and outdoor canvas shower, provide a secluded retreat in the unspoilt Pongola Game Reserve wilderness. Stylish dining, sophisticated simplicity, attention to detail, sweeping views and a myriad of bush and water-based game activities promise a unique African experience.

Private Bush Camp. White Elephant private bush camp is situated in the beautiful Pongola Game Reserve in Northern Zululand. The Game Reserve lies on the western side of the majestic Lebombo Mountains and the shores of the spectacular lake Jozini. Entrance to Bush Camp is from the N2 at the “Pongola Game Reserve (South)/White Elephant” gate.

White Elephant Bush Camp offers an alternative escape in seven spacious thatched chalets with ceiling fans and mosquito nets, which are generously spacious with private verandahs and spectacular views. Magical moon rises, Africa’s hues, uncomplicated dining and traditional bush comforts add to the serenity and harmony with nature.

Beautiful views, glorious sunsets, prolific wildlife, therapeutic silence, brilliant bird life, excellent tigerfishing, game drives and guided walks, ensure that there is something to interest everyone. Guests may also participate in our exciting elephant tracking programme for “close encounters of the elephant kind” or rhino walks. Lodge facilities include a boma/lapa, swimming pool and private water hole with viewing hide as well as an open-air dining area.
