Morokologa Nature Reserve
A stunning, pristine Nature Reserve of 550 hectares wedged into, but fenced out of, the much bigger Selati Nature Reserve surrounding it. We aim to offer our guests a unique and truly immersive nature experience without the usual risks, restrictions, and often exorbitant cost implications that usually underlies most Big Five related safari outings in a similar environment. We can accommodate up to 83 guests in Russet Willow Ridge Hut Camp, which is currently the only public camp on the Reserve. Sip a sundowner on the view tower and relax while the kids have fun in the playroom. We offer a variety of fun, nature related activities on the Reserve, such as self guided walks, guided bush walks, mountain biking, guided game drives, interactive bushcraft sessions, sleep-outs under the stars, and more.... In line with our conservation policies, and our commitment towards a cleaner environment and healthier planet, we went fully off-grid on the Reserve since 2012. We rely on gas-operated geysers, fridges and stoves, and we employ a combination of solar power and battery operated light units to meet our lighting requirements.
Area Info
The little town of Gravelotte, in the bushveld region of Limpopo, lies roughly half way between Tzaneen and Phalaborwa, in the Valley of the Olifants. It is likely that the town was named after Gravelotte Village in Lorraine, France, which was the scene of a famous battle between the Germans and the French in 1870, known as the battle of Gravelotte. The town was established in 1916, and owes it's existence to some mining activity that took place in the area over the years. The oldest emerald deposits on earth can be found in this area, and it is also the worlds largest producer of antimony. The ghost town of Leydsdorp, 10km from Gravelotte, bears evidence of also a gold rush to this area in 1888.
