Area Attractions
Birding Kwa Madwala has identified 223 different birds so far and there is clear evidence that further monitoring is needed to complete the identification process. Bird watchers will not be disappointed and sightings are plentiful with a good variety of indigenous and migratory birds in evidence. Several varieties of eagle, kingfisher, swallow and the ubiquitous hoopoe can be seen with relative ease around the reserve. Our daily guided bush walks are very popular with those interested in birding and generally allows for better opportunities in terms of spotting birds than when out on the game drive vehicles. Elephant Interaction Experiences (no age restriction) A 15 minute elephant interaction – (minimum of 4 people) - A brief introduction which includes touching, feeling and feeding the elephants. A 30 minute elephant interaction - Again an introduction to the elephants which includes a brief talk on their history as well as an explanation on the training concepts that are used and a game that are played to demonstrate their good sense of smell. The elephants are asked to lie down and guests can then have the opportunity to touch and feel them from head to toe. A one hour elephant interaction - A longer interaction experience which also includes a game to demonstrate their good memory and which covers a deeper knowledge shared by the elephant stable master and his specialised team. A one hour elephant walk - A walk through the bush in the 70 ha non-Big 5 area where guests can interact with the elephants and the natural environment simultaneously. A great way to combine a walking safari with a close encounter and lifetime experience with African elephants. Elephant Back Safaris for Guests (no children under 5 years) A one hour Elephant Back Safari (Maximum of 4 Adults and 2 children 5 – 12 years per safari) A half an hour interaction which includes touching, feeling and feeding the elephants and then a half an hour Elephant Back Safari through the bush in a 70 ha non-Big 5 area.

One and a half hour Elephant Back Safari (Maximum of 4 Adults and 2 children 5 – 12 years per safari) A half an hour interaction which includes touching, feeling and feeding the elephants and then a one hour Elephant Back Safari through the bush in a 70 ha non-Big 5 area and again you might come across some sightings of wildebeest, kudu, zebras, impala and warthogs. Two hour Elephant Back Safari Night Safaris The Kwa Madwala night safaris are nothing short of magical and offer an excellent introduction to the nocturnal species and animal activity in the reserve. The night drive traverses through the Kwa Madwala reserve and you can expect to get close to lion, porcupine, bush babies and occasionally if you are very lucky leopard, pangolin and aardvark. Microlight Safaris Kwa Madwala Private Game Reserve has employed the services of licenced Microlight pilots with their registered Microlight aircrafts on an ad hoc basis specifically to assist with aerial surveillance for the purposes anti-poaching and protection of the reserves Rhinos and wildlife. Bush Walking Safaris Following morning coffee and rusks or afternoon tea and cakes you will leave camp for a wilderness walk into the 4,000 hectare Kwa Madwala private conservancy.
