Onsite Activities

  • Game Viewing
  • Pilanesberg AccommodationResidents of Kgorogoro have traversing rights over the entire National Park, although with the Big 5 frequently spotted within 3kms of the Lodge, the need to travel long distances is not an issue. There are a number of rewarding "Sundowner" locations, a large hide next to a popular water hole, and a unique, private breakfast spot in the Wilderness area of the Pilansberg NP. These facilities are only available to Black Rhino guests.

  • Guided Walks
  • Pilanesberg AccommodationGuided walks in the bush are provided by Nare Walking Safaris within the Black Rhino + Wilderness areas of Pilansberg. A game viewer will fetch you from the Lodge and transport you to the start of the guided walk. These walks are of great interest and pleasure. As you will be walking in Big Five territory, armed rangers will accompany you at all times.

    Local Attractions and Activities

  • Golf Courses

  • sun city accommodation Gary Player Country Club: When construction of the Sun City Resort began in 1978, the decision was taken to build a golf course that would rival the best in the world. South Africa's most successful professional Gary Player, was an obvious choice to route the course in what is the crater of an extinct volcano. Today, the Gary Player Country Club is deservedly ranked as the number one South African golf course. Both the inward and outward loops are perfectly balanced, with every club in the bag being tested along the way.

    Lost City Golf Course: Some ten years after the completion of the Gary Player Country Club, the popularity of the Sun City Resort and its many attractions demanded that another golf course be built. Just a two-minute ride by shuttle bus from the Gary Player Country Club, you can now find the imposing Palace of the Lost City. In its shadow lies the legendary golf course. The course defies being bracketed into any particular genre - having touches of mountain, desert and even a brand of African parkland in its makeup.

    Rustenburg Golf Club: This is a modern golf course with old fashion values. The course has been ranked consistently in the Top 100 courses in South Africa for the last 5 years. People seem to be pleasantly surprised by the splendid condition of the course regardless of where they come from.

The Baviaanskrans Route is 19,5km and includes the Waterfall View and the Garden of Remembrance. The Peglarae Trail is a day excursion of approximately 5,5km over fairly steep and rocky terrain.
