Leopard Lodge
Travelers
Digest 2004 Review
Our crew travels the globe in search of the
best the world has to offer and in South Africa we
discovered an access in phenomenal contributes to the
world’s magnificence. South Africa is truly a diverse
land with a rainbow collation of people, culture and
stunning geography. From the beautiful bays of Cape Town
through the mountains and plains of central Zululand it
offers a panoramic vision of natures ability to create a
balanced environment for its multitude of life forms. We spent several months exploring this land and
developed lasting memories of what we discovered,
creations of nature and man. As that the cultures of this
land are diverse, so are its ceremonies and festivals. One
such worldly recognized ceremony is matrimony. The giving
of two peoples love, respect and acceptance of a life long
bond are truly appreciated in South Africa. We had the
privilege of visiting a few choice locations where this
unity of people in matrimony are elevated to a universal
level of providing the absolute best in environment and
amenities and all involved with surely cherish life long
and unforgettable memories.
Just an hours drive from the metropolitan city of
Johannesburg is a unique lodge hidden from the prying view
of the world it blends effortlessly into the Mageilesburg
Mountains, home of the elusive leopards. The African decor
of the impressive lodge opens it treed landscape to the
expanding valley below and magically whispers the meaning
of eternity as you gaze upon rolling hills encompassed by
jagged mountains and bathed with the blue waters of the
Hartbeespoort Dam lake. In the early evenings the sunsets
take you to an even higher plane of awareness as the
golden orange streaks of fading light create a silhouette
of misty shadows and extraordinary color as the life
giving sun bids it daily farewells. Time has no meaning in
such bliss and as the lodge was specially designed for
those joyful occasions when family and friends unite to
witness and celebrate the joining of two people in love
and holy matrimony there is no greater location or
atmosphere as this unimaginable paradise contributes to
the memories embedded in such words as...forever!
The lodge offers accommodations in private chalets, each offering private
veranda's and much heralded privacy. There are two large and welcoming
pools, one at the main lodge and another servicing the lower chalets. Each
chalet is complete with stylish and authentic African furnishings, a large
lounging area, private access to the pool and surrounding sun deck and
offer one or more bedrooms with inclusive bathrooms. The main lodge offers
the ultimate atmosphere for dining, whether in their large dining area or under the

total African experience. They radiate warmth, grace and efficiency. You
