Leopard Hills, built on a hill overlooking a natural waterhole and close to the perennial Sand River, lives right up to its name.
From your hilltop sanctuary, you may be lucky to catch sight of a leopard on the hunt, a breeding herd of elephant, or a few gracious kudu.
Many species of antelope pass by within view of the lodge, while in the reserve Africa`s big game abounds. On safari you may see prides of lion, elephant, white rhino, buffalo, cheetah, wild dog, hyena and many more.
Leopard Hills traverses over 10 000 hectares of the world-renowned Sabi Sand Game Reserve, which forms part of the greater Kruger National Park ecosystem.
Each day can be different as one explores the endless fascination of Africa`s wildlife. Hippo wallow in the river. Crocodile bask on a quite sandy bank. Overhead majestic eagles keep watch, and at the water`s edge and in the riverine bush are hundreds of different bird species.
Out walking you will discover a few of the endless number of fascinating small creatures of Africa. These are just a few of the amazing encounters awaiting you.
State-of-the-art landrovers, specifically designed for Leopard Hills, have individual bucket seats with fold-down armrests, ensuring your optimum safety and comfort. Early morning and late afternoon/evening game drives in search of Africa`s big game, are conducted by your knowledgeable ranger.
Back in camp you will find the highest standards of service and fine cuisine and not least of all a warm, friendly and fun-filled atmosphere which is the special feature of Leopard Hills.
Rooms
Each of the 8 luxurious glass-fronted suites, complete with their own sundeck and rock plunge pool offer superb views of the African bushveld beyond, while air-conditioning and overhead fans provide welcome respite against the harsh African heat.
The breath-taking romantic bathrooms, which include double indoor and outdoor showers, have windows which open to a glorious view of the passing cavalcade below.
Enjoy the privacy of your suite and salute the timelessness of Africa over a drink from your fully-stocked mini bar.
Or drift into a deep and peaceful sleep whilst enjoying a full body massage.
