Motswari Game Lodge Game Viewing and Activities
The Timbavati is renowned for its predator populations, supporting one of the highest densities of lion in Africa. Wild Dog and Cheetah are also often seen in the area. Elephant and Cape buffalo are common in the area, frequently occurring in large breeding herds several hundred strong. There are also healthy populations of all the antelope species of the region. For the bird-watcher, Motswari Game Lodge is a delight, particularly from September through to May when numerous migratory species arrive for breeding or to escape the harsh northern winter. Some 300 of southern Africa's 900 bird species occur in the area. Qualified rangers accompanied by skilled Shangaan trackers will do their utmost to ensure that guests get the best possible sighting. The area is renowned for its frequent sightings of the famed Big Five, lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo and rhinoceros and has healthy populations of all other species found in the region. Game-drives are conducted in the early morning and late afternoon, when the animals are most active and the scenery at its most spectacular. Optional excursions such as guided bush walks and bush dining are also available. Motswari is located in a game-rich area comprising four major habitat types. As such, it supports a diverse range of species, each fulfilling a particular niche for their survival.
