We offer the Guest the opportunity of walking in the spectacular 24000 hectare Makuleke Concession while also being able to enjoy the luxury environment of a 5 Star Lodge with all the accompanying amenities.

Walk with us either from the Lodge itself into the surrounding bushveld and the area around the confluence of the Luvuvhu and Mutale Rivers or we drive to other jump-off points within the Reserve and walk from the vehicle thus allowing a great deal of flexibility depending on the movement of the game and weather. Located on the side of a sandstone ridge, the 12 Guest rooms have incredible views over the Luvuvhu River valley with guests often enjoying good sightings of elephant and buffalo coming down to water in the shallow waters of the river.

Arriving back at the Lodge after the morning walk, guests enjoy a typical sumptuous English Breakfast then have time to themselves to relax, sit by the pool with a long drink or enjoy a quiet siesta followed by a light lunch and the afternoon activity. Afternoon walks/drives culminate at the many good vantage points to view the African sun dip beneath the horizon with the inevitable sundowner drink in hand. The drive back to the lodge is conducted in the dark with a spotlight to view the nocturnal nightlife of the Concession while on arrival the friendly Makuleke Outpost staff will welcome you back to enjoy a relaxing drink before dinner is served on the pool deck lit only by lamp light.

There are no set dates of departure nor duration for the trails, these are determined by you, the guest, as to when you want to arrive, how long you want to stay and when you would prefer to depart. Meal times are also flexible, particularly Brunch when arrival back at the lodge is largely determined by the sightings and duration of the morning walk.

Shangani Trails and The Outpost look forward to your company on the Limpopo Trail, walking with us in this very special and unique area of the Kruger National Park.
