Is the RockFig Safari Lodge for Me?

RockFig Safari Lodge is situated along the seasonal Ross River in South Africa’s Timbavati Game Reserve, providing an intimate and exclusive wilderness getaway. With a select handful of luxurious suites, this small property promises a highly personalised atmosphere, making your stay at RockFig Lodge Timbavati feel uniquely yours.

Between thrilling excursions, you can relax by the infinity pool, which frequently serves as a watering hole for passing elephants, or to rejuvenate your senses at the tranquil on-site spa. If you wish to stay active, RockFig Lodge also features a fully equipped gym. The communal dining areas provide a home-away-from-home feel, while cosy lounges provide an ideal place to rest after a game drive. These spaces transition gracefully into nature, creating an idyllic setting for unwinding.

Adventure awaits with two daily game drives led by professional guides, where a maximum of four passengers per vehicle guarantees an uncrowded, secluded safari experience. You can track the Big Five, wild dogs, and (possibly) white lions, or engage in exciting conservation activities like rhino chipping and Blyde River helicopter flips.

With this incredibly bespoke approach, RockFig Lodge is the perfect safari destination for families with children of all ages, close-knit groups of friends, and couples.
