The Details

The Lodge

RockFig has been positioned along the seasonal Ross River in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve. The architecture and interiors carry a relaxed bush feel, with indoor and outdoor guest spaces that flow into one another so groups can gather or slip away for quieter moments.

Direct daily scheduled flights run from OR Tambo International Airport and Kruger Mpumalanga International Airport with Federal Air, landing at the lodge's private airstrip.

Rooms

Six chalet-style suites sit within the fenced camp, each finished for couples, families or groups taking the whole lodge on exclusive use. Suites are air-conditioned and spacious, with private outdoor space looking into the reserve.

Dining

The kitchen leans on fresh, locally sourced ingredients and works local game into the menu. Meals move around the property depending on the day, from a poolside lunch overlooking the waterhole (regularly visited by elephants) to dinners served under the stars.

Activities

Two daily game drives run with a professional guide and tracker, with a maximum of four guests per vehicle. Sightings regularly include the Big Five, along with wild dog, cheetah and Timbavati's white lions. Guided walking safaris give guests the chance to experience the reserve on foot.

Optional add-ons include rhino chipping, elephant collaring, helicopter flips over the Blyde River Canyon and microlight flights.

Price Includes

  • Accommodation in a luxury suite
  • All meals and local drinks
  • Laundry
  • Two daily safari activities in the Timbavati Private Nature Reserve
  • Return transfers from the lodge's private airstrip
