Recreation

At Leopard Hills, Africa’s big game abounds and each day is different, as you explore the endless fascination of Africa’s wildlife in an open landrover. Game can be viewed on game drives, walking safaris, or even from the privacy of your suite deck.

A knowledgeable and professional ranger conducts early morning and late afternoon/evening game drives, in search of Africa’s big game. State-of-the-art landrovers have individual bucket seats with fold-down armrests, ensuring your optimum safety and comfort.

Walks through the bush take place just after breakfast, on request, and are the best way of experiencing the ‘finer’ aspects of the bushveld. A ranger will guide you though the fauna and flora of the Sabi Sand Reserve, pointing out insects, grasses, trees and smaller species that are all an integral part of the greater Kruger National Park ecosystem.

The treatment sala and gym at Leopard Hills is very popular amongst guests. What better way to work up a sweat on the various gym machines or enjoy an array of massage treatments in the glass-fronted sala, than gazing at the wondrous bushveld below?
