Explore the Panorama and famous UNESCO route

After breakfast, enjoy the Panorama Route where you will find yourself staring out of God’s Window at the canyons that seemingly stretch forever and the waterfalls, and indigenous forest nearly 3000 feet below. Visit Lisbon Waterfall. View the intricate network of large, otherworldly potholes, tunnels, and whirling pools at Bourke’s Luck Potholes. These bizarre shapes in the sandstone were formed over millennia at the mouth of the canyon by the raging Blyde and Treur Rivers swirling and crashing together. Visible on the other side of the northern edges of the Drakensberg mountains and shaped like traditional African huts are the iconic Three Rondavels, once known as the Chief and His Wives. From there, the Blyde River Canyon, the third largest canyon in the world and the largest green-covered canyon in the world opens out before us before you arrive at your lodge. Return to Dunkled for a braai (BBQ) and gumboot dancing.

Sunrise and Sunset Game Drives at Tshukudu Game Lodge

Tshukudu Game Reserve is home to some of the most endangered wildlife in Africa - lion, elephant, buffalo, rhino, and leopard. Other but equally fascinating wildlife, such as the shy, spiral-horned nyala and the not-so-shy vervet monkeys, are only 2 of the myriad of species that live in the environs of Tshukudu Private Game Reserve. It is a paradise for wildlife enthusiasts and bird watchers.

Besides the four-legged creatures, 477 species of birds are in the Greater Kruger area, from little grebes to goliath herons, pink-backed pelicans to lappet-faced vultures, as well as sparrow hawks, falcons, and quails.

After your sunrise game drive and brunch, you will have the rest of the afternoon to yourself. A delicious high tea before your first sunset game drive is the perfect introduction to life, sophisticated and wild, at Tshukudu. You will have plenty of time to freshen up before dinner once you return to the lodge.
