Tshikwalo Game Lodge is situated within the malaria-free Dinokeng Game Reserve, the first free-roaming Big-5 game reserve in Gauteng and offers an amazing African bush experience for local and international visitors. The name of the lodge has its origin in the Monkey thorn tree or Tshikwalo as it is known in Venda. This beautiful specimen tree is known to provide dappled shade, a very true reflection of what you will experience at Tshikwalo Game Lodge. Tshikwalo Game Lodge is a mere 30 minutes’ drive north of Pretoria and a 60 minutes’ drive from O.R. Tambo International Airport and Johannesburg. Tshikwalo, offering self-catering accommodation and a function venue, has an experienced and capable team, to ensure that you have a memorable visit, returning again and again to enjoy the pleasant and tranquil African bush experience. Apart from various activities that we offer like bush walks, game drives, private romantic dinners and many more, we have a beautiful licensed restaurant open every day for all meals and occasions.

“Tshiwkalo all at great value for money, so close to the city. The Dinokeng Game Reserve is a partnership between landoweners, the Gauteng Goverment, Blue IQ and all the local communities. 18 000 hectares of bushveld in northeast Gauteng has already been fenced in and the introduction of the free roaming big five has been completed. From the end of June it will be 40 000 hectares.” - Johagavanna Drescher, 2016/05/12
