On-Site Activities offered at Mafigeni

On the Mafigeni property, we offer guests a variety of services, activities and amenities, some of which are:

Nature walks - Trail distances are tailored to suit individual guests. Game may be stalked and viewed at close range and an abundance of bird varieties all adds to the experience of being at one with nature. Guests are guided by knowledgeable staff who will open up a new world to you.

Game drives in open safari vehicles – Guests may enjoy day and/or night drives. The best time for game viewing is early morning and late afternoon, as wild animals usually bed down during the heat of the day. Night drives give guests the opportunity of sighting nocturnal animals such as Serval, Aardvark, Bushbaby, Genet, Porcupine and various nocturnal birds.

Game viewing on horseback - Early morning, late afternoon and moonlight rides (during full moon only) are tailored to suit guests horsemanship. Experienced staff accompany all rides and first time riders welcome. Enjoy an hour or more (depending on your riding skills) in the Bushveld on well-schooled horses, suitable for all levels of horsemanship. Riders can encounter over 15 plains game species.

Stargazing – Discover the Southern Hemisphere with its clear skies and good “seeing”. In the Southern Hemisphere night sky, there are remarkable celestial objects that can be seen with the naked eye, which are below the horizon on the Northern part of the Globe and therefore unseen or poorly seen in the North. Look carefully for the Milky Way, the well-known constellations of the Crux, Southern Cross, Clouds of Magellan, Orion’s Belt, Venus and complex satellite galaxies of the Milky Way. A sky map for the current month is available upon request to assist you in identifying the many celestial objects of our night sky.

Guided tours – Enjoy a visit to one of the many places of interest in the vicinity with our experienced and knowledgeable guides. Visit the Blyde River Canyon, Kruger National Park or one of the many wildlife centres in the area.

We invite you to join Mafigeni for a safari vacation, a well-needed getaway or for a special event (weddings, conference, function, etc.). We look forward to hearing from you soon!
