Overview of Leadwood Lodge
Shaded by ancient leadwood and jackalberry trees, the exclusive Leadwood Lodge comprises only four luxury suites and is situated on the banks of the Sand River. Leadwood delivers an exclusive and very upmarket South African safari experience in the private Sabi Sand Game Reserve, adjacent to the world-famous Kruger National Park. The region boasts an abundance of wildlife and superlative Big 5 game viewing – especially leopard.
Enjoy close-up sightings of classic African animals while on open-vehicle game drives in the mornings and afternoons. For the slightly more adventurous, a guided bush walk offers the chance to discover the smaller details behind the African bush, as well as affording you the opportunity to enjoy the thriving and diverse birdlife of the area.
