Tucked away in the unspoiled expanse of northern Limpopo, the Mapesu Private Game Reserve spans 7,200 hectares of diverse and scenic landscapes, ranging from lush mopane bushveld to the grandeur of baobab trees. Here, visitors have the unique opportunity to encounter a wide array of species, including the revered Big Five – elephants, lions, leopards, buffalo, and rhinoceros. The reserve also teems with other iconic African wildlife, such as giraffes, zebras, hippos, and crocodiles. The vibrant birdlife of the reserve adds to its allure, featuring an array of avian species from majestic eagles to colourful hornbills. Moreover, within the reserve lies Koaxa's Rock Art Shelter, an archaeological gem that unveils ancient Bushmen art, some dating back 3,000 years, adding a rich layer of cultural significance to this remarkable destination.
