ABOUT ASKARI GAME LODGE
Situated on the Plumari Private Game Reserve in the Magaliesberg, just over an hour from Johannesburg or Pretoria, Askari Game Lodge gives guests a chance to view the big 5.
In celebration of the rich history of the area, Askari Game Lodge has a Market Day on the first Sunday of every month, where guests and visitors can enjoy home-made ginger beer, old fashioned sweets, crafts and good food from 10h00 till 2h00. The craft market tables are set amongst the ox-wagon collection and inside the Plumari Heritage Museum and makes for an wonderful Sunday out in the countryside.
ACCOMMODATION
The main lodge overlooks the Elephant Dam and invites guests to take a step back in time while admiring South African décor pieces dating back to the 1800’s. Slipper baths, a coal stove, wash stands, luggage chests, antique Oregon cupboards and tables are subtly placed within the luxury four-star surrounding, to emphasize the captivating history of the Magaliesberg area.
Askari Lodge has one of the largest private collections of ox wagons, carts and other animal drawn vehicles from the period 1800 to 1900. A variety of stone and iron-age arte facts, items from the Boer War and San Bushmen rock carvings tell the history of the area, which is also known for the nearby Battle of Nooitgedacht. Examples are available in the museum and guided bush walks take guests through areas where many stone carvings can be found.
Askari Lodge caters for romantic getaways, conferences, teambuilding initiatives, training courses and weddings. Nature lovers and birding enthusiasts will find the experience most rewarding, while stressed city dwellers will leave feeling rejuvenated and well-rested.
THE SPA
Askari Spa at Askari Game Lodge reflects the environment that surrounds it – African veldt and wildlife rise up to meet the African sky and majestic Magaliesberg mountain range. This Big 5 Game lodge is scenically set between Hekpoort and Magalieburg and pays tribute to South Africa’s rich archeological and cultural history within a malaria-free environment.
Soothe away the stress of modern life and dissolve impurities, under the gentle fingers of our therapists. The benefits to body and spirit will be truly rewarding.

We have all seen the Savage Survival and Survivor programmes on television while relaxing with hot chocolate on a comfortable couch. If you find yourself away from the comforts of your home, and you are stuck in a remote area with nothing but African Bushveld surrounding you, let us teach you how to survive in the bush says Fanus

Askari Game Lodge Elephant Experience
Askari Game Lodge Elephant Experience. Amazing how they interacted. These 2 boys are 15 and 16. The one is a bit stubborn and the other a real little lover boy. Extreme caution is taken every moment because they are still wild animals and very temperamental. They are not harmed in any way and have the rest of the day to roam around the property of the lodge and play in the water like real teenies are suppose to. This is where respect and trust is build between human and nature.

The Very Best - Makes a King
Aan die Oewer Orania
Aan die Oewer - Orange river, Orania, Northern cape, South Africa
Location on google maps...
Aan-die-Oewer, die oase van die Bo-Karoo.
Hier kan vakansiegangers en besoekers van oraloor die betowering van die pragtige oewer, die rivier en natuurlik die gasvryheid van Orania en sy mense kom ontdek. Uitgestrekte grasperke onder die inheemse wag-‘n-bietjie-, doring- en kareebome bied ruimte vir kinders om te speel en vir grootmense om sommer net ‘n vleisie te braai terwyl hulle die rustigheid en skoonheid van die omgewing geniet.
‘n Kampeerterrein, selfsorgchalets en ‘n hotel met 12 kamers sorg vir genoeg akkommodasie vir nagenoeg 150 gaste. Die oord het heelwat geriewe soos ‘n restaurant, spa, speletjieskamer, swembad, kayakke en ‘n vlot op die rivier, terwyl waterpret soos binnebandry en vierwielmotorfietsritte onlangs bygevoeg is. Al die avontuuraktiwiteite word onder leiding van ‘n bekwame gids aangebied.
Ons lieflike kampterrein is bekend vir sy ruim en skaduryke staanplekke wat omsoom word deur lower groen grasperke. Kampeerders van oraloor kan getuig van onvergeetlike vakansies hier langs die Oranjerivier. ‘n Goed toegeruste ablusieblok met bad- en stortgeriewe is onlangs van gasgeisers voorsien om te verseker dat kampeerders altyd warm water het. ‘n Outomatiese wasmasjien sowel as ‘n yskas met vriesgeriewe is ook vir kampeerders se gebruik beskikbaar. Hoewel daar slegs 10 staanplekke is, is elkeen voorsien van ‘n kragpunt, varswater kraan en verskuifbare braaier.
Die 28 selfsorgchalets is almal ten volle toegerus en wissel in grootte en uitleg. Elkeen is uniek en keurig toegerus en gaste staan telkens verstom oor die luukse verblyf wat hulle hier ontdek. Van die kleinste plekkie vir twee persone tot die grootste huis wat nege gaste kan huisves is toegerus met DSTV, lugversorging, houtdekke of stoepe met dekmeubels en braaigeriewe. Komplimentêre tee en koffie word vir u eerste nag se verblyf voorsien. Gaste kan deurgaans verseker wees van aangename verblyf en goeie waarde vir geld.
Die Oewer Hotel met sy 8 dubbel- en 4 familiekamers is ‘n goeie keuse vir gaste wat nie die selfsorgopsie verkies nie. Elke kamer is met sorg toegerus en is voorsien van alles wat u nodig het vir aangename verblyf. ‘n Klipgooi van die restaurant en spa af is die hotel ‘n goeie keuse vir gaste wat op ‘n sakebesoek aan Orania of omgewing is.
‘n Nuwe toevoeging is die 3 luukse selfsorgsuites wat ook deur die hotel uitverhuur word. Die suites bied semiselfsorgverblyf aan twee tot ses gaste en is skuins agter die Oewer Hotel geleë.

Roan & Desirée - Wedding Video at Tsekama
Roan and Desirée got married at Tsekama Private Game Reserve near Nylstroom - a beautiful bushveld setting.
Roan and Desirée; what an awesome couple. Throughout the day they were extremely relaxed and happy.... and there were smiles all around. I believe the video captures the sense of happiness everybody experienced on their wedding day. Blue skies with a few clouds, the beautiful bushveld backdrop and the venue that is built around a dam that added to this bushveld experience.
