Madikwe Elephant Photo Gallery

The African Elephants stands as a proud member of Afric's "Big 5", and in the Madikwe Game Reserve, there is no shortage of these incredible animals. With a population of over 900 counted in the last census, the Madikwe is the destination for those who are in need to photograph these highly intelligent mammals.

The Madikwe Reserve offers visitors the highest density of Elephants found anywhere in South Africa.

Over the course of a few years, we have collected this small portfolio of elephants photographs from our numerous ventures in the Madikwe bushveld. So please enjoy and remember that Madikwe is "Family Friendly" and "Malaria Free".

Our favourite lodge for spotting and photographing elephants is without question Jamala Safari Lodge; the waterhole here is one of the best in Africa - in fact, one does not have to go on a game drive to see the "Big 5", just sit back and wait for them to come to you.

All photographs have been taken by us here at Uyaphi.com with the sole purpose of showcasing the wildlife of the Madikwe from our point of view only.
