The Outpost

'In the most remote part of Kruger National Park, is a wilderness area previously uninhabited by visitors'

The Outpost lies in a vast wilderness area in the northernmost part of Kruger National Park. This region, called the Makuleke Region, is bordered to the north by the Limpopo River and Zimbabwe and to the east by Crooks Corner and Mozambique.

The Makuleke Region was occupied by the Makuleke Community for some 140 years prior to their forced removal in 1969 under the apartheid policies of the previous government. After South Africa returned to democracy in the 1990's, the Makuleke's lodged a successful land claim resulting in the return of their land. This return was conditional on the land being used only for ecotourism and subject to the environmental management of Kruger National Park.

Italian born architect Enrico Daffonchio designed The Outpost. Using simple, clean lines and combining elements of steel, concrete and open space, the unashamedly contemporary design of The Outpost emphasizes its beautiful surrounds but blends and preserves the wilderness that is its home.

ROOM & SUITE TYPES:

The Outpost comprises one large main building and twelve stand-alone living spaces set on the side of a hill overlooking the Luvuvhu River, all connected by a half kilometer long walkway made of Zimbabwean teak. The Main Building and Spaces are cooled effectively by an environmentally friendly evaporative cooling system.

FOOD & WINE:

The Outpost offers a variety of places to dine. Breakfast is served under cover in the dining area in the main building with views of the Luvuvhu River Valley. Lunch is either served in the dining area or a picnic lunch is prepared and served out on safari at the riverside or under the Baobabs. Dinner is either eaten in the enclosed courtyard under the stars or on the deck next to the pool.

FACILITIES/ACTIVITIES:

– Game Drives: long or short excursions in the morning and again the late aftertoon
– Hiking and Birding: Walks are conducted in parts of the region not accessible to vehicles including the spectacular Lanner Gorge.
   The Makuleke Region is renowned for its birding and guests may be able to the Pearl-Spotted and Giant Eagle Own among others.
– Visit the Makuleke Village: The history of the Makuleke people is best explored by a visit to the Makuleke Village in the capable    hands of a Makuleke guide. A visit to the Makuleke Village is a full day's excursion.
