Lalibela Game Reserve is located within South Africa’s Eastern Cape province & although small in comparison with other South African reserves, it is the only one in the Eastern Cape without a public road running through its property.
Experience
The malaria-free Lalibela encompasses 5 eco-systems, resulting in a breathtaking diversity of fauna & flora. Home to the famous Big 5 – lion, leopard, elephant, buffalo & rhino – as well as other predators like cheetah, hyena, jackal & lynx – Lalibela never disappoints when it comes to wildlife viewing.
Lalibela Game Reserve places a strong focus on conservation, wildlife viewing, luxury & great food – the most important safari ingredients, by far!
