Construction on Kwa Maritane Bush Lodge commenced centuries ago. An ancient alkaline volcano fashioned the very hills that Kwa Maritane stands on today. Hence it's name, which literally means "Place of the Rock". From here, you can look out over the infinite plains adjacent to the Pilanesberg National Park - an area rich in wildlife and hosting around 365 species of birds.

Perhaps it's these ideal natural surroundings that won us the "Best Game Lodge" Award at the 1998 and 2001 Conference & Exhibition Venue Awards. Or maybe it's just that we offer distinctive service in every way.

Safari and Game Drives
As well as the 'Big Five' you might also find the nocturnal brown hyena, cheetah, hippo, crocodile and even sable. The focal point of the sunrise and afternoon game drives is game and bird identification. From September to March, we also offer a more leisurely sundowner drive, with sundowners and game viewing by spotlight.

Make a whole evening of it with an afternoon drive combined with a bush braai at our Boma. During the summer months of September to April, you enjoy the thrill of a nightlife encounter on our special night drives. And if you'd prefer to stay in, you can always catch live wildlife on the Africam facility in your bedroom.

Then there is also the unique experience of a 130 metre underground tunnel leading to the Hide. The perfect vantage point for an intimate look into the wild, without being detected yourself.

Pilanesberg National Park
Pilanesberg National Park, which covers some 55 000 hectare, is the fourth largest in southern Africa. This malaria-free park is perched on the eroded vestiges of an alkaline volcanic crater - one of only three such craters in the world. On its undulating hills and everlasting open plains, you can get a glimpse of the 'Big Five', an abundance of animals and over 360 bird species.
