Description

To tour South Africa without paying a visit to Trekpad Safaris would be a great pity. Travel as our forefathers did, the 'trekboers,' those early pioneers who migrated ever northwards, right from the southernmost tip of Africa into the great hinterland of this vast continent.

Trekpad Safaris is a 4-star graded game lodge situated on the R511 Brits/Thabazimbi road in the Limpopo province. Here you can enjoy an unsurpassed Africa experience. We offer you 'an affair to remember' with all the trappings of traditional South African cuisine, pioneer accommodation with all the necessary modern amenities and safari game drives. We also have a lovely pool to cool off in after the rigors of an arduous game drive or walk.

Trekpad sleep 25 people in double rooms: De Stallen (The Stables), De Opstal (The Farmhouse), De Herberg (The Lodge) en De Wittebrood (The Honeymoon). De Raadzaal is our conference facility and De Wagenhuis (The Barn) our traditional dining room.

But before we move on let us take a moment to reflect on our proud history.

Thabazimbi is frontier country: tamed by courageous men and women during the 19th and early 20th century. It is to these men and women whom we have dedicated our company, to these pioneers whose lives were all about trekking and especially hunting!

At the beginning of the 20th century, they found their peace and rest in this world of opportunity. They built their plain little 'hartbees' thatched houses all along the banks of the Crocodile River and finally 'came home'. The friendship between the president of the then Zuid-Afrikaansche Republiek, president Paul Kruger (one of South Africa's major nature conservationists) and the Tswana chief Ramokoka was legendary and is a further colourful story we would like to share with you on your visit to Trekpad.
