Naledi Game Lodge
Stargazing safari lodge in Balule — Big Five by day, astronomy by night from a dedicated observatory
About Naledi Game Lodge
Naledi Game Lodge is a safari lodge in the Balule private nature reserve, part of the Greater Kruger ecosystem. The reserve shares unfenced borders with Kruger National Park, allowing the Big Five to roam freely across vast protected wilderness.
Game drives are conducted in open vehicles with experienced rangers and trackers, with morning, afternoon, and night drives available. The private reserve offers exclusive traversing rights with minimal other vehicles, off-road tracking capability, and guided walking safaris — experiences not available on Kruger’s public roads.
All meals, drinks, and safari activities are typically included in the rate, with dining ranging from bush breakfasts to atmospheric boma dinners under the stars.
