Connect South Africa presents: Leopard's View Lodge
"Especially for those who want to escape to the heart of Big 5 country....without ever feeling like a tourist!"
Leopard’s View is an intimate, boutique game lodge set deep in the heart of the big five Balule Private Game Reserve which covers more than 30,000Ha. The secluded cluster of three very comfortable en-suite African style rondavels surround a well-appointed lounge area and viewing deck, game tower, bar and dining area, and splash pool and from here game viewing is as simple as gazing out over the valley!
The camp is built on a hillside overlooking a valley where game come and go all day long. The true magic of Leopard's View lies in its isolation. Not a single light impacts upon the evening sky, and all you'll hear are the sounds of the bush … lion, hyena, jackal and a myriad night creatures of all descriptions. By day the camp attracts a superb variety of birds and an endless array of wildlife visits the waterhole just below the camp itself. Elephant, giraffe, zebra, waterbuck, kudu and much more are often seen within metres of the deck.
You may choose to use Leopard's View as a base from which to explore the region with its many wildlife options, or to take a self drive daytrip into Kruger Park (a mere 30 minutes from the Reserve gates). Or, if you prefer, you can relax around the pool and enjoy the tranquillity of our camp, isolated from the world and its hassles. You'll see plenty of animals from the deck, the game tower, or the hide next to the waterhole.
