Mabula

Just 200 kilometres north of Johannesburg, Mabula is one of the most easily accessible reserves in the country. Its 12 000 hectares are split into 2 sections with lions restricted to one of them – this allows guests to enjoy a whole range of activities on the other, including horseback and quad-bike safaris.
