    Overview

    Kapama Karula means, 'the place of peace' and that is what this luxury camp exudes. Set on the banks of the Klaserie River which flows throughout the year, this is the reserve's most secluded and prestigious lodge. Boasting 12 Villas, spacious guest areas and a Wellness Centre, Kapama Karula should be on your list of lodges to see in the Greater Kruger National Park.

    Each of the 10 Superior Villas and 2 Family Villas, boasts a his and hers basin, inside and outside shower and sliding glass doors providing unrestricted views onto one of the most sought-after locations - the Klaserie River.

    The lounge, dining room, bar, pool and pool deck as well as other guest entertainment areas will impress the best of connoisseurs. A new Wellness Centre situated on the Klaserie River, offers a well-equipped gym and 4 stylishly decorated treatment rooms.

    The Kapama Romantic Sleep-out at Lions Den offers a million-star overnight experience. Sleeping in the open air on the reserve, elevated high above the ground under the African night sky is a uniquely romantic experience. A raised platform is evocatively furnished with an oversized bed festooned in white linen and billowing mosquito netting. It’s completely safe, while being surrounded by only wilderness and wildlife. The experience is guaranteed to take your breath away.

    About Kapama Private Game Reserve

    Kapama Private Game Reserve is situated in the Limpopo Province and was proclaimed a private nature reserve in December 1993. Covering approximately 16 000 hectares of prime big game territory, Kapama Private Game Reserve has succeeded in combining the wilderness of the bush with the comforts of five-star hospitality and facilities.

    The name comes from Kapama, a Swazi king, whose tribe inhabited and hunted the northern Drakensberg mountain region around Mariepskop back in the 1880s. A game relocation programme was introduced and the reserve now supports a wide variety of game including elephant, buffalo, rhinoceros, and large populations of giraffe, impala, blue wildebeest and kudu. Predators include lion, leopard, cheetah, spotted hyena and many smaller species.
