Lodge History and Story

Our Story

Sekala Private Game Lodge stands as one of the best lodges in South Africa, born from a passion for African wildlife conservation and a desire to create an exclusive safari experience in one of South Africa's premier game reserves. Nestled in the heart of the Waterberg Mountains within the Welgevonden Private Game Reserve, Sekala offers an authentic South Africa lodge experience that combines luxury with the raw beauty of the African bush.

The lodge was designed to blend harmoniously with its natural surroundings, offering uninterrupted views of the spectacular Waterberg landscape. The name "Sekala" draws inspiration from local heritage, reflecting our deep connection to the land and its wildlife. As a leading luxury lodge South Africa has to offer, we take pride in our attention to detail and personalized service.

Since our establishment, we have been committed to providing an intimate and personalized safari in Limpopo experience. Our vision has always been to create one of the best game lodges in South Africa where guests can disconnect from the busy world and reconnect with nature in comfort and style.
