Luxurious eco-retreat in the heart of Limpopo!
WELCOME TO LETHABONG LODGE
Just a stone’s throw away from the majestic Waterberg Mountains, close to Thabazimbi and less than a 2-hour drive away from Johannesburg and Pretoria. Whether you need a quick luxurious weekend break in your own tent or a family holiday with bucket loads of fun activities, Lethabong Lodge has it all! Lethabong Lodge offers self-catering hotel rooms, safari tents, 4×4 bush campsites, and a day visitor’s playpark. Our eco-friendly retreat is nestled within 700 hectares of pristine wilderness, all of which is available for our guests to explore on guided game drives.
Create a romantic getaway in a private and luxurious tent, with an adjacent braai area and splash pool. Rough it out in our 4×4 bush camps or spend quality time with your family, either at the playpark with all its rides and slides or game viewing. At dusk, you can sit back and enjoy a cold one while listening to the crested francolins’ call and the crackle of your campfire. Lethabong Lodge will rejuvenate you and your loved ones’ spirits, make you feel alive, and appreciate the beauty of nature in all its splendour. We have several different species of game, Giraffes, Wildebeest, Zebra’s, Eland, and different kind of birdlife roaming freely in Malaria-free Bushveld.
