Golf Destination
Golf and Big Five safari in the African bush
The Kruger and Lowveld region combines distinctive bushveld golf with Big Five safari in and around Kruger National Park. Play courses surrounded by wildlife, rivers and open landscapes, with game drives and safari lodge stays easily planned around your rounds.
April to September generally offers cooler, drier conditions for both golf and safari, with comfortable daytime temperatures and excellent game viewing. From October to March, the region is warmer and greener. Summer brings lush bushveld scenery, seasonal rainfall and occasional afternoon thunderstorms. Golf and safari are possible throughout the year, with the best travel period depending on your preferred weather, pace and overall itinerary.
