The Timbavati Game Reserve borders the Kruger Park, but the animals are able to roam as they please as there are no fences to restrict them.
Some excellent private safari lodges can be found in this hot lowveld area of wood and grassland which is home to the Big 5: lion, leopard, rhino, elephant and buffalo, plus many more species of predator and antelopes.
The Timbavati area experiences summer rainfall while the winter days are normally bright and clear with cold evenings around the boma fire.
