Addo Safari Lodge: Winter Activities

Our Addo region has an arid to semi-arid climate which means game viewing is good all year round. However, June to September is the driest period and so there is more chance of seeing animals as they gather around the prominent water holes in winter.

The days are also often warm and clear, perfect for Addo safari tours, Addo safari activities and walks. There are a number of activities on offer in our Addo region. Guests can enjoy all outdoor activities as the weather is often fine. We encourage guests to book the Addo zip line, Addo giant swing, visit the Addo raptor and reptile centre and enjoy close encounters with the Big 5 on a Schotia safari.

Guests often enjoy magnificent winter sunsets from our viewing deck before gathering around the warm boma fire at our Addo safari lodge. The boma is a communal gathering spot to enjoy a sundowner drink and we also serve our evening dinners here too. Guests enjoy relaxing, soaking up the African bush and sharing stories of their Addo safaris.

Addo Safari Tours

We offer guided Addo safari tours into the Big 5 Addo Elephant National Park. We make use of our off-road 5 to 7 seater Toyota Fortuner, a very comfortable 4×4 vehicle with heating for those particularly cold winter days. We leave Kudu Ridge Game Lodge at 9am and return at 3pm and include a picnic lunch in the park.

The Addo Elephant National Park is the third largest national park in South Africa, after the Kruger National Park and Kalahari Gemsbok National Park. The park covers an area of 1,642 square kilometers (634 sq miles) and the main gate is 15 minutes drive from Kudu Ridge Safari Lodge.

No two Addo safari drives are ever the same. Our tour guides love to share their knowledge and stories with guests and the tours offer great photographic opportunities.
