Ihlozi Lodge is located within the exclusive Kuleni Private Game Farm which is home to Giraffe, Zebra, Wildebeest, Nyala and other small antelope species. The farm is situated on 200Ha of pristine Indigenous bush , offering amazing +- 20Km of marked walking and cycling trails through the reserve and a hide down at the dam for those into their birding. None of the animals have any predators as there is no big 5 in the park. The great side of this is that the Giraffe and other animals are very use to human contact and if you are walking on the trails you can get very close to the animals without them been to scared/skittish which makes for a super unique encounters and photos.
