The Sabi Sand Nature Reserve boasts a rich concentration of wildlife, serving as the habitat for the iconic Big 5, including elephants, lions, rhinos, leopards, and buffalos.
Cheetahs, giraffes, zebras, wild dogs, and a diverse range of antelope and other species can be observed freely roaming within their territories. Inyati is globally recognised as one of the premier destinations for up-close encounters with the elusive leopard.
Inyati Game Lodge provides the opportunity for fishing as an additional activity to enjoy during the intervals between game drives. We supply all the necessary fishing equipment for our guests.
Fishing takes place in the tranquil setting of the Sand River and at the causeway. Ensuring the safety of our guests is our top priority, and they are always accompanied by a trained and armed ranger or tracker during their fishing excursions.
The Sand River boasts an impressive variety of fish species, with over 37 different types inhabiting its waters. Among the most commonly encountered species are the Sharp-tooth Catfish (Barbel), Mozambique Tilapia (Bream), Squeakers, Tigerfish, Smallmouth Yellowfish, and Mudfish.
Apart from the sheer relaxation of fishing, it offers a splendid way to immerse oneself in the natural surroundings. While casting your line, you can listen to the melodic chirping of various bird species or the distant calls of hippos, truly connecting with the bush in a peaceful and serene manner.
A definite highlight for nature enthusiasts is the bush walk experience offered at Inyati Game Lodge. This opportunity allows guests to immerse themselves in the wilderness, providing an up-close encounter with the smaller inhabitants of the bush, such as birds, insects, and butterflies.
During these walks, participants can explore the fascinating world of trees, grasses, flowers, geology, and ecology, gaining a deeper understanding of the ecosystem. Occasionally, lucky walkers may spot some iconic "Big 5" game animals.
Bush walks typically occur before or shortly after breakfast, depending on the season and prevailing weather conditions. This unique adventure allows guests to connect intimately with the natural environment and its myriad wonders.
