There is a place deep in the Waterberg mountains which beats to the ancient rhythm of Africa.

Makweti is in the Malaria Free Welgevonden Private Reserve, which is in the Limpopo Province of South Africa and is contiguous with the Marakele National Park.

Makweti is a luxurious intimate camp with five elegant thatch and stone suites accommodating just 10 guests.

It is an easy three hour drive from Johannesburg. Air charters and road transfers are available to the Welgevonden Private Reserve.

Diverse wildlife, including the Big Five and over 300 species of birds can be seen on the reserve. Game viewing is in open vehicles or on walking safaris over 37,000 hectares of wooded mountain landscape.

A strong conservation ethic makes for an interesting educational experience.

The area enjoys a temperate climate: 23 - 34°C from October to April: 05 - 17°C from May to September, Makweti is an ideal retreat to acclimatize before embarking on the rest of your trip to South Africa, Botswana or Namibia.

Makweti offers fine dining and an extensive selection of South African estate wines.
