Jackalberry Ridge is the ideal accommodation option for guests looking to reconnect with nature. With the vast bushveld as a background, this self-catering lodge in Marloth Park is a departure point from which to explore the nearby Kruger National Park and other attractions.
Self-drive Tour in Kruger National Park
Guests lodging at Jackalberry Ridge can opt for a scenic self-drive tour through the Kruger National Park, which is home to an abundance of wildlife, such as the majestic Big 5 (rhino, elephant, leopard, lion and African buffalo) as well as giraffe, kudu, African wild dog, zebra, hippo and hyena.
A guided safari can be booked through the park, but a self-drive tour will give guests the opportunity to see the gorgeous fauna and flora of the bushveld up close. Don’t forget to pack your camera for memorable moments!
Walking, Biking and Birding
In the predator-free zones of the Kruger National Park, guests can enjoy a wonderful nature walk or mountain biking trail surrounded by the sounds of nature. Bird enthusiasts will be glad to know that the park boasts over 500 bird species, and Marloth Park, where Jackalberry Ridge is situated, features just over 300. Keep your eyes peeled on your game drives but also while you are relaxing back at camp.
Microlight Safari
For guests wanting to experience something new, Kwa Madwala Private Game Reserve is one of a very few private game reserves in South Africa that offer low altitude flights above a safari environment. Tail glazers (open plain safari) are conducted from sunrise to sunset — the perfect lighting to snap up your best holiday pictures.
Jackalberry Stargazing
At Jackalberry Ridge guests will delight in a love affair with the South African sky once night falls. With very little light pollution, and no bright city lights obstructing your view, guests can happily sit by the fire watching for shooting stars.
Marloth Park is a wildlife sanctuary located on the boundary of the Kruger National Park, where the African wilderness awaits....
