About Abelana Safari Camp

About us

Abelana Game Reserve is a 15,000ha (36,000 acres) Big Five game reserve adjacent to the Greater Kruger National Park and the Selati Game Reserve, close to the town of Phalaborwa in South Africa’s beautiful Lowveld – the country’s prime big game region.

Owned by the Mashishimale community, the word “abelana” means “to share amongst each other” in the local Northern Sotho language. This spirit of sharing underpins the relationship between the Mashishimale and its lodge operations partner which leases the land for eco-tourism purposes.

Characterised by breathtakingly beautiful landscapes, varied topography and a mixture of vegetation types, Abelana Game Reserve has a 10km stretch of the semi-perennial Selati River in its northern section, as well as numerous other seasonal watercourses.

Accommodation Options

Meru Tent
Abelana Camp consists of Four Meru-style tents. The Meru tents are comfortable and well-appointed, offering an authentic safari experience. The tents are all equipped with beds offering a twin or king-size configuration with lighting provided by solar power. Because we are located in a water-scarce region each tent is equipped with a shower rather than a bath, with hot water provided by gas geysers always available. Restrictions may apply in regard to activities particularly walking safaris for children younger than 16 years of age.
