Walks through local gorges and the fever-tree forest are highly recommended, as are wildlife drives.

The lodge – which employs local staff almost exclusively – operates under a community-partnership arrangement where a portion of profits is paid to the Makuleke community. After the expiry of its lease, the lodge will be turned over in its entirety to the community.
